Trunk or Treat...
We would like to thank all families, staff, and PTO for making our first on-site Trunk-or-Treat event a huge success! The weather accommodated us, and, the children, families, and friends all enjoyed trick or treating and playing on the playground. It was a terrific night of community fun and we can't wait to do it again next year!
Mrs. Flanaghan and Ms. Fitzsimons
