The PTA is holding a Canned Food Drive the week of December 1^st - 5^th for those families in need. We realize the economy has been hard on everyone so we greatly appreciate any donation that you can make for those less fortunate than ourselves.  The class that brings in the most cans will win a Pizza Party and a "canned" surprise for each child. Thank you for your support.

It’s that time of year again and we are collecting coins for the “KONY Coins for Kids”.  This is always such a great program for our students to participate in.  Starting Monday, December 8^th through December 12^th we will collect coins from the students in their classrooms.  It’s great seeing the students bring in their “coins” and contribute to such a worthy cause.  100% of all funds raised are used to provide Christmas for disadvantaged children in the Washington County area of Southern Utah.  Coins for Kids guarantees two things: that your donation will not only put smiles on lots of little faces, but will put a smile on your face as well this Christmas. Please join with us this year in experiencing the true Joy of the Christmas Spirit.  Thanks for your support!

Thanks to all of our outstanding students who participated in this year’s Reflections Program.  We have so many talented chidren at our school!  We would like to give a big, special thanks to Chanda Blomquist and Tina Lorentzen for all of their hard work to make  Reflections so successful and fun.  Reflections is just one of the many great programs for your children that is brought to you by the PTA!
