PTSA has several events and activities coming up, including Valentine Gram deliveries, Popcorn Friday, a Food Handlers certification class, and yearbook sales. Volunteers are especially needed to help prepare and distribute popcorn, and having more certified helpers allows us to run student events and concessions. Family involvement makes these activities possible, and community support is greatly appreciated.
