Thank you so much to everyone who spread the word about our PTO fall fundraiser! We have raised over $120,000 as of Wednesday morning! WOW!!!! This money will support Field Trips for all students, our garden and lessons in the garden, as well as professional development for our teachers to improve teaching and learning! We are so thankful to our families for all of your support! As you can see below, the fundraiser will continue through September 29th and then we will celebrate with ALL students (whether or not they participated) with a Day of Awesomeness on November 2nd where students will get to play on some fun play on some fun blow ups!

Students are nominated for this Principal’s recognition award for going above and beyond our school expectations - those who exhibit leadership, kindness, and extraordinary character!

We are so proud to announce this week's Akers' All-Stars:

• Ethan Groschke
• Olivia Bevill
• Cole McCullar
• Harper Brackens
• Vivian Leal
• Skye Goodbrand
• Eliel Toledo
