NEW! News from our Crews

A big thank you to Parent Crew and all the families who donated for our self-care surprise!

A note from Ms. Sami's Crew

Ms. Sami's 4th-grade Crew is continuing the tradition of the Cereal Box Challenge for their Beat. Ms. Sami's Crew is coordinating with a local food bank to donate all the cereal boxes for their service project. The goal is to beat the school record from last year: 245 cereal boxes. Ms. Sami's Crew is asking each student and staff member to bring in an unopened box of cereal by February 14.

One of the most important sponsorship levels is the Teacher Ticket sponsor, which ensures all our staff can attend our event for free! We also have many sponsor benefits for families and local businesses at all levels, so check it out!
We are in need of donations for the live & silent auctions. Do you have a trade or skill you would be willing to add to the silent auction? Got a cabin, a great place to host a party, or a cool car to take for a spin? We would love to have any services, spaces, or experiences you are willing to donate to support the school! We're also specifically looking for 100+ bottles of wine for the wine wall game too! All your donations are tax-deductible and count toward your volunteer hours!
