CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS!
This Saturday, December 10 - 11 :00am - 3:00pm (DC Armory)

Garrison is participating in DC EdFEST 2016, DC's only citywide public school fair. The fair is held this coming Saturday, December 10 from 11:00am - 3:00pm at the DC Armory (2001 East Capitol St SE).

We are still seeking volunteers to join the Garrison table to greet prospective parents and provide a personal view of life at Garrison.

Volunteers are needed for 1 hour shifts - though we will happily take your help for longer if you can spare the time!

Volunteers are also needed for our prospective parent open house on Saturday January 7 at Garrison.

Please sign up at the Garrison Website's Volunteer Page, or email us at garrisonpta@gmail.com.

Thank you for your help in recruiting the newest class of Garrison Wildcats!
Expedition Showcase and Winter Program
Tuesday, December 20 - 9:00am - 11:15am

You're invited to our Expeditions Showcase and this year's "Winter Movie Spectacular" winter program, being held Tuesday, December 20.

The Expeditions Showcase begins at 9:00am, and the winter program is scheduled for 10:15am - 11:15am.

During the Winter Program, PS/PK through 5th graders will participate in dancing and singing from some of your favorite winter movies including The Peanuts Movie, Polar Express and Home Alone. 

We will also have a penny war to raise money for St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. Bring your spare change to donate to a wonderful cause!

Parents will be getting more information soon about what their child needs to wear for the Winter Program. If you have any questions or concerns, please email Ms. Samball at elizabeth.samball@dc.gov.

We hope to see you there!
