RTG was a huge success! Our Kendall Knights raised over $65,000 for our school! The money we raise at RTG helps pay for classroom supplies, teacher grants, campus improvement projects and so much more. Thank you to our teachers and staff for your support these past couple weeks and thank you to all of our amazing parent volunteers that made this day so fun for our kids! We are so grateful for all of your support!
