Sunnyside Elementary PTA

🎉 Proud to be recognized by California State PTA for the Together We Build Membership Challenge!
Thanks to our amazing community, we grew our membership by +25% this year—stronger together, one member at a time 💙

Kids love the garden 🌱

This Monday, nearly 75 kids joined in the fun:

Kinder & 1st graders were excited to see the seed box refilled and can’t wait to water their seedlings.

2nd & 3rd graders formed a “trash club,” digging up lost tools, plastic dinosaurs (??), and plenty of surprises.

4th & 5th graders watched a beetle take on an orb weaver through magnifying viewers.

What a beautiful way to celebrate 🌈✨

All the Sunnyside grades came together this past Friday to create a rainbow flag, and wrapped up the festivities with a dance party
