We Need YOU!!!

Our deadline to recruit volunteers for next year's PTA board is just around the corner, and we need your help!  As a PTA board we must have at least a President, Secretary and Treasurer in order to operate.  Being a member of the PTA Board is a lot of fun, and you never work alone.  We work together as a team to raise funds, provide fun family programing and most importantly support our teachers, staff, and students!

Please consider volunteering to join our team.  The deadline to submit your nominations form is March 25.

CATCH Corner

March is National Nutrition Month, an annual campaign created by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics to highlight the importance of healthful eating and physical activity habits.  Encourage your Bobcat to choose healthy GO foods, drink lots of water, and get outside for some fun physical activity.  

This is a good time to ramp up your child's Marathon Kids miles.  Don't forget to log your child's miles in the Marathon Kids tracking site. It is quick and simple to log your child's activity. We hope you have a healthy, fun, and safe spring break!
