We Need YOU to Host a POP!
Sounds like something you/you and a friend or two could host? Please click here to sign up ASAP so your POP can be revealed at the Ice Cream Social. (Is your POP idea not developed enough to go live at this week's event? We'll continue to accept POP submissions through the end of the spring, so let us know if you would like to host something later in the year)! Need ideas? Click here! |

Check the Lost & Found!
Please check the Lost & Found for items that belong to your child. As the weather gets cooler, the coats, sweatshirts, and water bottles begin to pile up!
The Lost & Found is located near the instrument cubbies at the end of the hallway that leads from the main entrance to the cafeteria.
