☀️🎉 Summer fun is heating up at Castlewood! 🎉☀️

The school year may be winding down, but there’s still excitement ahead!

🎁 Father’s Day Sale – June 16 & 17. Students can shop for that special dad, grandfather, uncle, or loved one. It’s also our final fundraiser of the school year and helps support the programs, events, and special experiences our students enjoy—from BMX assemblies and Mr. Softee treats to family events, celebrations, and other PTA givebacks throughout the year.

🍍🌴 Family Fun PTA Meeting – Join us on June 17 at 5:30 PM as we celebrate an incredible year of memories, friendships, and accomplishments. Food, fun, and childcare will be provided!

Thank you to our amazing Castlewood families for making this school year so special. We can’t wait to celebrate with you as we finish the year strong! 💙💛

A huge thank you to all of our students, families, and staff who participated, donated, and made this year’s Penny Wars such a fun and exciting event. Every penny, bill, and silver coin helped support our school while bringing plenty of friendly competition along the way!

🎉 Congratulations to our champions, 2nd Grade, for successfully defending the title they first won as 1st graders and proving once again that they are the team to beat!

Until next year… start saving those pennies! 🪙🔥

💰 Penny Wars begins Monday! 💰

The jars are ready and the competition is about to begin! Bring in your pennies, dollars, and bills to boost your grade’s score. Don’t forget—silver coins can be used to lower another grade’s total. 👀

Every coin counts, every point matters, and anything can happen before the final tally on Friday!

Good luck, Castlewood! 🏆✨
