Hello La Scuola Families!

The holidays are nearly here and we'd like to show our gratitude and celebrate our La Scuola teachers and staff like they deserve!

Each year, the Parents Association of La Scuola (PALS) requests monetary contributions in order to pool our resources and equally gift our wonderful teachers and staff. 

Like last year, we are making a single request to cover both teacher/staff winter holiday gifts and teacher appreciation in the spring. We are suggesting a contribution of $85 per student. However, any amount that is comfortable and meaningful for your family is perfect. 

We will pool all of the funds collected and distribute 50% to each of the following: 

• Holiday Gifts for La Scuola Classroom and Specialist Teachers and Staff (in December)

• Teacher Appreciation (in the Spring)
