PTO Update
The new sign was installed yesterday, and it looks wonderful! It replaces one that was 20 years old and in very bad condition. All of the support we receive from our Richmond families allows us to do great things like this for our school! Thank you all!
Girl's Choice: The Spring Fling is this Friday, April 29th. Doors open at 6:30pm, and the cost is $10 per family. Come dressed in your favorite spring attire - dresses, shorts, pants, florals, pastels, prints - wear whatever you will be comfortable in for a fun evening of dancing with your special date! A photographer will be on site for anyone who would like to purchase a keepsake. Also, don't forget to decorate and return the flowers, butterflies, and birds that were sent home before vacation - we are using them as decorations at the event! More information about the dance, including photography order forms and decoration templates, is available http://richmondelementaryschoolpto.yolasite.com/resources/2015-2016/Forms/Girl's%20Choice%202016.pdf. See you Friday night!
