UP Elementary PTA donates an additional $20,000 to the Boone PTO!
|
|
The UP Elementary PTA has recently gifted an additional $20,000 to the Boone PTO. This gift is in addition to the nearly $60,000 that each of the elementary PTAs, including UP, donated to the Boone PTO last fall. This gift is yet another testament to the tremendous support and generosity that the HPISD community has towards our new school. All of the HPISD PTAs have gone to great lengths to ensure that Boone is able to offer our students the same superior experience on day one that we enjoy at all the other HPISD schools. We are immensely grateful for this act of generosity by the UP PTA and its families. Please join us in thanking them for this gift!
