PUMA Families! 💜💛

We're starting to put together raffle baskets for our upcoming Pancakes with Santa and could use your help!

Do you own a small business and have a gift card, product, or service you'd be willing to donate? Maybe you have sports tickets, attraction tickets, or other fun items you'd like to contribute? We'd love any raffle donations, big or small!

Not only do raffle donations help support our school, but they're also a great way to highlight local businesses in our community.

If you'd like to donate or have any questions, please send us a message through our PTA page. Thank you for your support!

🐾💜💛 Puma Families — Chipotle Spirit Night Update! 💛💜🐾

We wanted to give everyone an update on our recent Chipotle Spirit Night. We heard from several families who experienced issues when presenting the flyer at the restaurant that evening, and we completely understand how frustrating that was!

We were able to speak with someone at Chipotle’s corporate office, and we’re happy to share that we were able to receive the funds from our Spirit Night! 🎉

We sincerely apologize to any of our Puma families who had issues when trying to participate that night. We truly appreciate everyone who supported our PTA and helped make the night a success despite the hiccups!

Thank you for always showing up for our school and our Pumas! 🐾💜💛

Together, we can do something GREAT!

Tired. Hungry. Out of dinner ideas?🌯

Sounds like a Chipotle night! Join us for Spirit Night next Wednesday and support our school while someone else does the cooking.

We could use a few more volunteers for Duty Free lunch this Friday!

🚨 Volunteers Needed!

We could use some extra hands at Duty Free Lunch this Friday!

What is Duty Free Lunch?
Once a month the PTA and volunteers give our amazing teachers a break at lunch! Rather than staying in the cafeteria during lunch, teachers get to head back to their classroom for a lunch in peace 💛 Volunteers help students in the lunch line, supervise students while they eat lunch, wipe down tables, etc!

If you’re able to volunteer please sign up on our sign up genius below!
