Dear SPS Community,

As we begin planning this year’s Fall Festival (October 11th–12th), we’re reminded that for some of our wonderful families, this will be their last year at our school. While this is a natural part of the journey, it’s always bittersweet to say goodbye to families who’ve given so much to our community.

With that in mind, we’re looking for enthusiastic families who are interested in becoming more involved in the Fall Festival on an ongoing basis. This year, we’re especially looking for volunteers who would be willing to shadow current chairs with the goal of taking over in 2026 OR fulfilling the vacant chairs for this year. Shadowing is a great way to learn the ropes while supporting this year’s event!

Granny’s Attic Rummage Sale, shadow opportunity: Ideally two families to coordinate donation drop-offs the 4 weekends leading up to the festival, organize, price and set up/break down the space, and arrange for disposal of any leftover items. Opens at 8am on Saturday and 10:30am on Sunday.
