  • The PTO Board is looking for parents to take on various roles next year. One major need is the role of President for the next school year. We are also seeking a Treasurer Elect to shadow/assist our current treasurer who will then fully take on the role of Treasurer next school year.

Hip Happenings Are Still Available!
