We need more mints for April testing!
The PTO is asking for donations to provide our students with mints for testing. Mints have been shown to invigorate students during long tests! Our goal is to donate 1500 mints to the whole school. The donations will be divided for each teacher to have on hand if a student would like one! We have been asked that mints be the hard type and individually wrapped. Mints can be dropped off in main office.
Stay tuned for more PTO updates!
