✨ What an incredible way to kick off the 2026-2027 school year! 💚💙💛

The PTA Board has officially survived our first two BIG back to school events… and we couldn’t be more excited!

🍽️ Dragon Delights Teacher Luncheon was a huge success! We are so thankful for all of the amazing teachers who joined our Dragon Delights Teacher Appreciation Program this year. We can’t wait to spend the year showing our incredible staff just how appreciated they are! 💚💙

📚 Meet the Teacher was another amazing day! 😍Getting to meet so many new families while also seeing so many familiar faces reminded us why we love serving this school community.

And here’s the part that has us absolutely pumped… 🎉

BEFORE the first day of school has even started, we already have almost as many PTA members as we ENDED last school year with! 🤯 That is an incredible testament to the support, excitement, and heart of our school community. 🙌🏻🥳💚

To every family that joined, volunteered, stopped by our booth, purchased spirit wear, or simply took the time to encourage us, THANK YOU. Your support makes every event, every teacher appreciation gift, every family activity, and every student opportunity possible. 💚💙

We have a feeling this is going to be our best year yet, and we can’t wait to see what this school year has in store! 😍

Here’s to an amazing 2026-2027 school year! Let’s make it one to remember! 🐉💚💙💛

🎉 Today’s the Day! 🎉

How cute are these Lakes & Bridges Dragons stainless steel water bottles?! 😍

We're thinking about offering these at Meet the Teacher, but there's one catch... we have to order 100 bottles upfront to make it happen. These bottles are not cheap at our cost, and we have made them extremely affordable for our Dragons, but if we do not have enough options, its ok! We will keep trucking!

Also, we will have adorable plastic water bottles available as well!! Once we have the details finished on them, we will share it with all of you!

The bottles below would cost:

💧 $15 each
💧 2 for $25

Before we place the order, we'd love to hear from YOU!

👇 Would you buy one?
❤️ React if you'd purchase one!
💬 Comment below with:
• "1" if you'd buy one
• "2" if you'd grab the 2 for $25 deal
• No- if you would rather have the plastic

Your feedback will help us decide whether we move forward with this order. We'd love to have these available for our Dragons this school year, but we want to make sure there's enough interest first!

📚 Perfect for students, teachers, and Dragon fans!

Let us know what you think! 🐉💚💙We need to make our decision SOON, so please comment and share your thoughts! 💙

🐉 Teacher Friends — Don't Forget! 🐉
