​​

• Honorary Service Awards: There is a great deal of behind the scenes work that goes into this special event. If you have a special mom, dad, teacher, school staff that exceeds your expectations this is a great way to recognize them by nominating them for a Honorary Service Award. 

​​

• Meet the Masters: Staff and students learn about artists and experience the artist’s techniques through this hands on program. Students creations are displayed at our Open House.

​

• Parent & Me Mornings: Parent and me mornings are a simple idea with a profound impact. It's a morning snack held before school where caregivers and their children meet with other parents and kids in the school cafeteria. During this time, they discuss a wide range of family topics, spend time together, create fun memories, and get to spend time strengthening their relationships on campus.

​

​​

• Student of the Month: PTA Volunteers take pictures and make photo buttons and ribbons. 

​​

• Trunk-or-Treat: Of course this is always a blast! Bring your kids in their costumes and a bag for candy so they can walk around and trick-or-treat from decorated and themed trunks. You don't want to come too late or you may miss the candy. This is a night event in the school parking lot. If you want to decorate your trunk start thinking of ideas now! 

​​

• Walk Through History: I have to admit I have learned so much watching the walk throughs for grades 4th, 5th, and 6th! You child will learn and take part in costume to act out history.
