Just a reminder that PTA is still challenging each class to see whose class can bring in the most can tabs and box tops

in the most box tops will win goodie bags for each child in that room. Continue collecting!
4th grade parents, come and have fun at the 4th grade celebration on the last day of school. We appreciate all of the 4th grade parents who have already signed up for the 4th grade picnic. The day will
start with awards, then food and games, followed by the 4th grade parade. We would love to have
some volunteers to assist with games and serving food etc. You can contact me at [email protected] or my cell at 997
