February is here, and it’s time to show the love! The PTO loves our teachers and staff at Park Campus.We’re grateful for the time and dedication that they give our children so they can be successful students. We’ll be showing them the love on Feb 16th at the Teacher Appreciation Dinner, and hope you will, too! Please see the donation form in the flyer section of the newsletter for more information. We love all of our PTO volunteers! Without you, our events could never be pulled off so well!
We see that you’ve been showing the love, too.
Our 2nd movie night of the year was PACKED! Thank you to everyone who attended. Market Day sales were good, and it sounded like the students really enjoyed the PTO sponsored assembly with “The Dancing Scientist”.
Our Valentine’s Dinner & Dance held last Friday was incredible. Thank you to all the families who attended and enjoyed dinner, danced and bought tickets for raffle items! Again, thank you to our volunteers who assisted with this event, and to those that donated raffle items. A huge thank you to our Deejay, Mark Sliteris! He donated his time and equipment to the PTO for FREE!
We have many opportunities for you to interact with the PTO the rest of the school year. Scan the flyers at the end of the newsletter for upcoming events such as Inspiration Day where we need some helping hands! Thanks for your support!
