PTO Status Report

As we head into October - we are currently at 74% of our Membership goal!

Our Membership Drive and supporting Donations fund the programs and activities that the PTO provides throughout the year. Our goal is to provide 100% of those benefits to our students and upcoming events - but we can't do that if we don't meet our goals!

If you are able to consider joining us as a member or making a donation - we would greatly appreciate your support!

Already donated or joined the PTO? Be sure to check if your company has a matching gift program to make your donation go twice as far! Contact us with any questions on the Matching Gift Program!

Can't remember if you joined? If you haven't received your water bottle or notice of your other incentives... then chances are good you haven't joined! Contact us and we'll double check for you!

WALK TO SCHOOL DAY!

It was a perfect morning for a stroll to school last Wednesday- fresh air, exercise, and a much needed break for the car!
