We are thrilled to co-chair the 2024 Spring PTO Fundraiser and we need YOU!

The fundraiser, formerly known as "Party for Play", is a social event for parents, guardians, teachers, and adult friends of our great school. Whether you helped 10 years ago, last year, or never before, we want you to join us. We are looking for anyone who has helped in the past so we can continue to build on the great fundraisers that came before, and also want fresh faces with new ideas.

Please email jenbigham@gmail.com to be added to the planning committee list, and you will receive information on our first meeting.
