A Message from the PTA

Happy Wednesday, Huskies!


Thank you to everyone who attended, volunteered, performed or hosted a table at International Family Fun Night last Friday!  What a fun night!  We left with full bellies and full hearts.  As a reminder, Spring Break is next week.  There is no school April 3rd-7th.  We wish all those who are traveling, safe travels and all those staying in town, a fun and restful week!  As always, reach out if you have any questions or need help with anything PTA related.

Nominating Committee is meeting now and we would love to have any interested parties email darinkoff@outlook.com."
