Winter 2016 Activity Nights- Mark Your Calendar!
Each year, the PTA hosts grade-specific Activity Nights. We have some great acts lined up for this year.
Kindergarten and First Grade: Thursday, February 18 at 7pm in the Commons
Second and Third Grade: Thursday, January 14 at 7pm in the Commons
Fourth and Fifth Grade: Friday, January 22 at 7pm in the Commons
Each child must be accompanied by a parent and only students in the specific grades can attend due to size limitations. We won't be doing an Evite this year, but will send out an email through classroom Room Reps with more details as each Activity Night approaches. Please contact Christina Perez with any questions.
PTA Volunteer Hours
Attention all PTA volunteers! Please use this form to record any volunteer hours you have logged outside of school. (Meaning not recorded in the book in the office) Due to the reduction in General PTA meetings this year, we fear we may not have an accurate account of hours logged. This form will be available on the website under Resources for future use as well. Thank you for all of your service!!
