Give a shout out in the comments to our very own, Mrs. Ayala!! Your leadership and support is so appreciated!!!

October is National Principals Month and we’re celebrating ten building principals for the leadership and support they provide to our schools and students throughout the year. From supporting their staff and students to helping create a positive school culture, our principals have a hand in so much of what makes each of our schools special. Show them some love in the comments and let them know how much they’re appreciated!

Less than 10 days left to reach our sales goal, and that's to beat last year's sales! We are only 15% of the way - send out those shopping links to family and friends!! Be sure paper forms are completed entirely and returned to the school with all collected cash and checks made out to "Willow Grove PTA". Sales end October 8th!

Any student who sells just THREE items will be able to attend an awesome in-school assembly! It's an exciting one!
