2️⃣ Go to the Family section
3️⃣ Make sure your information is entered first
4️⃣ Then add your student(s) and their teacher

Why does it matter? 👇

🍦 Your child’s classroom gets credit toward the membership drive
👕 Spirit wear orders can be matched with the correct classroom
🏆 Every membership helps your class climb the leaderboard!

Let’s keep the momentum going! 💪🐾

🎉 House Color Shirt System! 🎉

We’re excited to celebrate our students through our House Color System! Each house color represents an important character trait—from Responsibility and Trustworthiness to Kindness, Respect, Fairness, Courage, and Honesty. Our students earn house color points by demonstrating these positive qualities and good behavior throughout the year! 🌟

Each month, one house will be chosen to come onto the stage to enjoy lunch and special snacks provided by our PTO. Students will also have opportunities to use their house points for chances to win prizes!

Don’t forget to wear your house color shirt on designated House Color Lunch Days and show your house spirit!

New students will receive their assigned house color shirt. Replacement shirts are available for $5 through the PTO Spirit Wear Store.

Let’s show our House Color Spirit all year long! 💚💙💜💛❤️🧡🩶
