Mark Your Calendars
Read-a-thon/Book Fair On Friday, February 12th, Read-a-thon materials were sent home. If you haven’t seen the materials, contact your child’s teacher. Please encourage your child/ren to participate in this fun and motivating activity. The Read-a-thon is a school-wide PTA event that raises thousands of dollars for our enrichment programs! Last year with your support, we raised over $8,000! The Book Fair begins on February 22nd and continues for a week. Every class will have the opportunity to view and purchase books at the Book Fair. Your support is appreciated and needed to continue to provide the wonderful enrichment programs to our students. – Ms. Keener
