Parents and Teachers Together
P.A.T.T represents Parents and Teachers Together! One of our goals as the Parent Group is to create fun activities for the students, while showing our support to the teachers and staff. Various events throughout the school year are put on by the P.A.T.T. Another goal that we have is to raise funds for J.M.M.S, to allow for upgrades around the school!
6th Grade Parents – We’d Love Your Help! 🎃💜💛
Join us on September 10 at 6:00 PM at Ohio Roasting as we begin planning the 6th Grade Halloween Dance on October 8!
All 6th grade parents are welcome to attend and help us brainstorm, plan, and make the dance a fun night for our students.
