PTO Volunteers Needed
Happy Rainy End to February!
I am sure that this weather will not put a damper on the fun that will be had at the Father Daughter Dance today. Can’t wait to hear and see all that happens.
Thanks to a great committee for once again putting together this well attended event. It is always a special occasion that the girls and dads look forward to each year. The response has been great! Thank you for your support!

The online store has been updated to reflect lower prices and remaining inventory for our Winter Sale! Quantities are limited so don’t wait to get the last of this year’s apparel at reduced prices.
LUNCH PROGRAM
Don’t forget to complete your March lunch order form by the 25th, tomorrow! By popular demand, Jersey Mike’s has been added to the lunch selections for March! Please continue to provide feedback on our vendors, so we can make the best choices for our lunch program.
