Today we held our annual PTO Fun Run! Students run laps and are sponsored for each lap they run. This fundraiser helps support student playground equipment, fun events and other items needed for our school. The students have a blast, earn funds for the school and have a healthy day. Thank you to the parents and community who sponsored each child and a huge thanks to the PTO for their support in holding this event!
