Our return from the winter break did not go quite as expected, but we hope that you enjoyed the snow days! We are optimistic that the worst of this pandemic is behind us and we look forward to brighter spring days filled with PTA activities that we all know and love.
One thing we are looking forward to is the return of the Spring Fete after a two year hiatus. We cannot wait to party like its 1982 on Saturday, May 21! One big change this year is the auction which will be held online in just a few weeks. Bidding opens on Monday, 1/24. Check out the Fete website for more info.
If you have any ideas, questions, or feedback, please feel free to reach out. We look forward to hearing from you! As always, we thank you for your support.

There are many ways to get involved in the PTA and not all require a huge time commitment. For those who feel they don't have a lot of time to give or for those who may just be interested in dipping a toe into the PTA, consider the The 1 Day Club! Members of this club will be called upon to help with quick, one time activities. To join The 1 Day Club, click here.
