FROM THE PTO
The PTO is excited to announce that we raised just over $39,000 from the Big Saints Bash in March. I am grateful to everyone who played a part, big or small, in making this possible.
A very special thank you to our Bash committee who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make everything possible; Maura Gillon, Sonia Tankersley, Caroline Swanson, Emily Bearden, and Maggie Rhine.
Without our on-site set-up volunteers Bash would not be possible. This wonderful group of people lifted and carried, glued and hammered, among many other tasks, to make everything come together. I am so grateful for the support of Maura Gillon, Mike Gillon, Sonia Tankersley, John Tankersley, Maggie Rhine, Justin Rhine, Caroline Swanson, Ana Gonzalez, Emily Bearden, Emily Hillman, Heather Allen, Eliana Grady, Sondra Wells, Julianna Eldemire, and Erin Bradstreet.
A big thanks to the silent auction basket lead volunteers from each class. We are so appreciative of every teacher who donated their time to make Gifts from the Heart possible. Thank you to all the sponsors for their generous donations as these sponsorship funds directly help to offset expenses. And thank you to everyone who supported Bash by bidding on silent auction items.
The PTO is responsible for hosting 13 events throughout the school year including Popsicles in the Park, Parents Night Out, Trunk or Treat, Thanksgiving Feast, Nativity Pageant, Trike-A-Thon, Literacy Week, Big Saints Bash, Art Festival, Muffins in the Morning, and a few Moms Night Out evenings. The money raised from Bash helps to fund these events as well as school security, classroom enrichments, teacher continuing education and bonuses.
Thank you to everyone for making this year’s Bash a great success!
Alice Maguire, PTO President
