All the parents who helped with Trunk or Treat! The kids had a great time checking out the creative decorations and getting some pre-Halloween treats. Thank you to those who donated the treats!

The amazing parents who coordinated classroom baskets! The class baskets were a huge hit at our silent auction and brought in over $3,200 alone.

 

This year was great and we are aiming even higher for next year. Be on the lookout for a committee meeting in November to let us know what you liked and what could have gone better. We are looking for both feedback and help with planning and implementing next year! With your help we can make next year's Festival even more successful and fun!
