Our Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) plays a vital role in enriching our students’ school experience, helping to provide memorable events and meaningful resources that go beyond the classroom. Activities such as Fall Trunk-or-Treat, Spring Fling, Paint Night, Candy Cane Grams, and our Fall and Spring Book Fairs—as well as important contributions like soccer goals, playground equipment, 5th grade promotion support, field day resources, and additional classroom supplies—are only possible through the time, energy, and involvement of our families. This year, these opportunities were made possible by a handful of dedicated board members and parent volunteers. As we begin planning for the upcoming year, we are facing a critical need for increased parent participation. Without more volunteers and engagement, it will be difficult to sustain the same level of opportunities our students have come to enjoy. We encourage all families to consider getting involved in any way they can—whether through volunteering time, attending meetings, or supporting events—so that together we can continue to create a vibrant and supportive school community for every child!
We are asking that you take 2-3 minutes to complete this survey to find out what events you love and how you might want to pitch in—on your own terms.
As a thank you for your time, everyone who completes the survey by Friday, May 22nd will be entered to win a $25 Amazon Gift Card!
Last chance for online orders is May 15th! Click here to buy your copy. Any remaining books will be sold at the school until they're gone! Yearbooks will be distributed on Tuesday, May 26th!
Sometimes a cloudy day is just what you need! ☁️✨
To wrap up a Bookworms Cloud Unit, kindergarten students headed outside to become amateur meteorologists. Using their handmade "cloud finders," buddies paired up to scan the horizon, identify different formations, and record their scientific observations. From wispy Cirrus to fluffy Cumulus and low-hanging Stratus clouds, these Colts recorded it all!
