Welcome

It finally feels like spring is around the corner. We are in the midst of planning our various end-of-year celebrations for the classes – we’d love to have you join us! We could use your energy or would gratefully accept contributions for prizes for the students. Just send in a note to the PTSA box at school or email us. And finally, we encourage you to come to the PTSA meetings to learn more about our school and share your ideas and talents throughout the year.
