| FUN RUN SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT: |
WHY DO YOU SPONSOR THE FUN RUN?
"As former PTA President and board memb

On behalf of the Miraloma PTA a huge THANK YOU to the Fun Run Team and the many volunteers
for putting the time, effort, and planning into making the Fun Run such a great experience. Way to bring off a wonderful event! Once again, I am so impressed by the cohesion of the Miraloma community!
Sunday was a perfect example of what makes Miraloma unique and excellent; families supporting our school through giving their time and donations to benefit our students all while having lots of fun. Thanks Miraloma families for putting in all the work that makes our school such a great success!
