PTA Membership Drive!

We still need members in order to continue to have PTA in our school. In the past the money PTA has raised with fundraisers has gone to purchase:

Playground equipment, Reader board, Popcorn Machine, just to name a few. Your membership dollars buy you a vote as to where the PTA dollars are spent in our school.

Each classroom will compete to earn an Ice cream party by signing up the most members.

The winning class will also earn their Teacher a certificate for Scholastic to purchase books for their class. The deadline will be Monday November 30^th.

Please sign up and support your children and their school!
