Our PTO President, Lindsey Evans attended the State Support Team 6 meeting last night to assist in helping local districts communicate needs with their parents.
We also may be having "a Support Fair" in the future so that parents can learn about the local support organizations for their special needs children.

We had a great turnout for Clean Up Day! We had 14 people (adults and kids) help beautify the playground!

Thank you to all who spent your morning making our Playground safe!

We were able to clean all the stationary equipment with a power washer, clean and place imaginative play stations in the Bair House (cabin), pull weeds from the asphalt and start to strip peeled paint off the benches.

We will be discussing other items at our PTO meeting on Thursday, September 8th 6-7:30pm
