Ogden PTA

🎉 A huge THANK YOU to the incredible volunteers and businesses who helped make our 5th Grade Celebration such a memorable event! 🎉

We are so grateful for the generosity and support that helped create a fun-filled experience for our students as they celebrated this special milestone.

💙 Special thanks to:

✨ Atlantic Premier Entertainment for donating DJ services, a bubble machine, and a professional photo booth that kept the energy high and the smiles coming all week!

✨ Hammerhead Party Rentals for providing our obstacle course and yard games at a reduced rate, helping make the day extra exciting for our students.

✨ Carrie Roberts with Parties with a Pop for creating the beautiful balloon towers that helped transform our celebration space and make it feel extra special.

✨ Jennifer Fiddler for generously donating the backdrop decal that added the perfect finishing touch to our event.

Your kindness, generosity, and commitment to supporting our students helped create a celebration our fifth graders will never forget.

🐠💙

💡💵 Free Enterprise Day 💵💡

Our fifth graders put their entrepreneurial skills to work as they created, marketed, and sold their own student-made products during Free Enterprise Day! This hands-on experience brought economics to life while teaching creativity, teamwork, budgeting, and business skills.

We loved seeing the innovative ideas our students developed as they became both business owners and consumers for the day.

Congratulations to all of our young entrepreneurs! 🌟📈

A huge THANK YOU to our Outreach Chair, Kelly Amato, for organizing a special show of appreciation for the firefighters at Station 16! ❤️🚒

Kelly worked with our students to create heartfelt thank-you posters during media time, with assistance from Mrs. Pinkard, giving students a meaningful opportunity to express their gratitude for the heroes who serve our community every day.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this act of kindness possible! 💙
