Please note tickets are non-refundable. If you purchase tickets and find you can no longer make it, tickets can be transferred to another family.
 
School Dance
We're looking for parent-volunteers to chaperone Duffy Dance night on Wednesday, April 26 from 6-8 (no dance experience required LOL) and help out with snack sales. This will be the first opportunity for Duffy Dragons to have a dance party SINCE 2019 and we need your help! If you're interested in helping us pull off this fun event, please email Duffy Dance Chair, Ashley Whitney, at ashleyrwhitney@gmail.com.
 
We want YOU! 
... for next year's PTO! We are on the hunt for parents and guardians looking to get more involved with PTO for the next school year. Some roles can easily be shared between two people. In particular, we need to fill the roles of VP and Treasurer Elect. If you are interested in getting involved, please email current VP Dawn Gagliardi or Kim Molinaro.
 
We love our Duffy Spirit Wear! But it wouldn't be available without the hard work of Carrie Ann Cloud and Carolyn O'Sullivan to develop the selection of items, coordinate with the printer, and roll out the webpage to all of us. Thank you both for bringing us another great selection of items!
