Staff Appreciation Week
Parents and Caregivers! Are you looking for a way to show appreciation for your student's teachers, and don't know what to do or don't have time to shop? Then PTA has just the thing!
- Consider donating towards Monday, May 6th's coffee, tea, and donuts (link to Givebacks donation page) to get Teacher Appreciation Week started off right!
- Sign up for Treat the Teachers Wednesday May 8th https://www.signupgenius.com/go/70A0D49ABAA2FA5FB6-49320225-treat
- Also, please get your students to school early on Wednesday, May 8th so they can craft a Thank You note for their teachers! We will have tables set up in front of and behind school with crafting supplies starting at 8:30.
Core Fair - Thursday May 9th
We are excited to see the whole school community at our Annual Core Fair!!!! Core Fair is an amazing event where we celebrate Core Knowledge learning and come together to bond with music, food, and fun (See attached flyer)!
