Dolphins!!
As we jump into the new year, we want to thank our incredible PTO families and volunteers. We currently have two fundraisers running, and the support so far has been truly amazing. Your time, generosity, and willingness to show up for our school mean more than we can say.
Weβre also excited to share that weβll be transitioning soon to a private PTO Facebook group. This space will allow us to share photos, celebrate moments, and capture memories together in a more connected and secure way. More details coming soon!
Thank you for being such an engaged and supportive community. Weβre grateful for each of you and excited for whatβs ahead π
