Parents,

Thank you for your support this week with our book fair! It was great to see so many families participate in supporting our school while promoting a love for reading. We appreciate all of the great volunteers that took time to be here to help us, thank you!

We would also like to say thank you for a great 4th grade PTA Performance this past week. It was great cheering for our school alongside of our 4th graders!

We look forward to a great October!
