Snack Donations

Your child is welcome to bring a snack to school each day! As a grade level we want to ensure that each child always has something to eat when they are hungry! Snack donations to your child's classroom are greatly appreciated. Please make sure that if your child is in the peanut free class that the snack you send does not have peanuts! Snacks do not just have to be in individual bags, anything is appreciated!

CONTRIBUTE TO THE ROGERS PTA

Joining the Rogers PTA is the best way you can financially support some extra special events and programs offered to the students throughout the year, including class parties, field day, house shirts, ninja run, diverse abilities day and staff appreciation just to name a few! Paying PTA membership dues helps support these things but does not mean you are required to volunteer. There are many opportunities to volunteer throughout the year if you are available, and as a member of the PTA you will be the first to hear about them. We hope you will join us as we support our students and teachers with an extraordinary 2022-23 school year!
