Another amazing PTO event in the books! This one truly filled our hearts. Seeing our school community come together to laugh, play, and make memories reminds me just how special our school really is. The smiles, the creativity, the teamwork. It was all incredible!

This year we broke records—and had a blast doing it!

Over 800 pounds of candy handed out (most of it donated by our wonderful families!)

24 trunks decked out in amazing decorations

Fun games and activities for everyone to enjoy

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped make it happen. Our staff, families, and volunteers are the heart of this event. 💜

And an extra shout out to our amazing community partners for joining the fun and supporting our school:

Here’s to another successful event and many more memories to come!
