Penguin Holiday Shop Coming Soon to CES!



Dear Parents,

We're so excited that our school will be participating in an in-school Penguin Patch® Holiday Shop to spread holiday cheer!

Penguin Patch® Holiday Shop is a fun way for students to shop for family members and experience the spirit of giving while learning to earn, budget, and save! Our shop will be open Monday and Tuesday, December 15th and 16th.


Your student will have over 100 delightful gifts to choose from, all ranging in price from $0.50 to $13. This is an amazing opportunity to empower your student to choose, purchase, and give gifts to their loved ones! While your child is having fun shopping, you are also helping raise money for our school.
