Note From The PTA 📚
Save the Date (It's on October 31st!!) and plan to come watch your child have the best time. Individual fundraising materials were sent home with students! We moved to an online platform to make it easier this year, but there is still the option of collecting traditionally with the envelope. We are working to raise money to update the jungle gym playground equipment! See the image below!
Thank you sponsors!
