Book Fair: As part of our book fair activities, we have wish lists of books for our teachers. Please consider giving a book to your teacher. Every teacher curates a list specific to their needs and enhancement of their classroom libraries. If you would like to purchase one of these books to gift to a teacher on behalf of your child please visit the Membership Toolkit and complete the steps outlined in the sign up by Friday, Dec. 13.
The PTO would like to thank all the families who joined us during Culver’s and Noodles & Co. fundraising events! The proceeds will go back to all D103 libraries.
