Various committee reports highlighted the kickoff of our Read-a-Thon fundraiser and new initiatives for staff appreciation. Additionally, we informed members about advocacy opportunities and upcoming events such as Walk to School Day and Family Movie Night. Your involvement is essential for supporting our school community!
