π A Night of Stars π
Another Fun-Filled Middle Level Dance!
Eldorado's Middle Level students came out for an evening of music, games, pizza, and lots of dancing on Friday, January 31st! This much-anticipated event was made possible by the fundraising that our middle level students achieved during our fall Color Run event, as well as the more recent donations made by our Eldorado families. PTO would like to thank everyone for their generosity and effort! We would also like to express our gratitude to parent Sarah Zabel, who was the primary organizer for the dance for the second year in a row. What an amazing night!

π A Night at the Library! π
PTO was thrilled to help Mr. Riesel put on A Night at the Library on February 4th! We had guest readers, STEM activities, a literary snack station, a green-screen photo booth, crafts, and games!
The students know that the Eldorado library is so much more than just a quiet place to get books; this was a wonderful opportunity for many of our parents to discover everything it has to offer, too.
Thank you to everyone who volunteered and attended!
