We're So Thankful for You!
Your leadership, service, and donations have supported our teachers (with budgets for classroom supplies and appreciation events), our students (with enrichment activities, support for special school-wide events, playground upgrades, scholarships, and "extras"), and our community (with service activities, advocacy, community-building socials, and sustainability initiatives)!
Happy Thanksgiving, and thank you for being a part of the CP PTO.

Tree Lighting with the PHS Choir
Join us on November 29th as we bring the holiday spirit to life during our Annual Tree Lighting!
The festivities begin at 2:30pm on the Green as Ice Sculpture Philly carves a baby grand piano out of ice! As dusk falls, these frosty works of art will set the stage for The Flying Ivories to perform later in the evening. Enjoy warm drinks from Yankee Doodle Tap Room as they have their Hot Cocoa Corner on the Green at 3:30pm.
The fun doesn’t stop there! At 5 pm the lighting officially begins. Straight from the heart of the Jersey Shore, a featured concert from the BSTREETBAND will keep the party going! Get ready to ROCK around the tree, singing along to iconic Bruce Springsteen holiday hits!
Look out for special appearances from the Princeton High School Choir, and fingers crossed a certain jolly, white-bearded fellow helps us light the 32,000 twinkling lights on our giant spruce tree!
