2022-2023 Caraway PTA Reflections
Donate to the Giving Tree to support Caraway!
Giving Tree is our annual fundraiser that directly supports the teachers and students of Caraway! Giving Tree donations provide important funding for many different programs throughout the year. With your help we are hoping to raise $10,000 for the 2022-2023 school year. We kindly suggest $60 per child, but feel free to give any amount that you can. Every contribution is greatly appreciated and helps make so many programs possible, including Field Trips, Online Subscriptions, Classroom Equipment, Specials Supplies, Library Books, After-school Clubs, Community Events and much more! Head over to Caraway PTA and donate to Caraway today!
Interested in flexing a creative muscle or looking for a fun family project? Look no further! Trunk or Treat is on Sunday, October 30th from 3 - 5 p.m. Come dressed up as your favorite character or spooky creature. Those daring enough to decorate a trunk will be eligible to win a prize! All Caraway Owls are encouraged to come and enjoy candy, games, raffles and more. If you're interested in helping with planning, volunteering on 10/30 (sign up), or decorating a trunk (sign up), please sign up or email jessica.lowry@me.com.
Birthday Wish on the Marquee
Celebrate your student’s birthday with a birthday wish on the school marquee! Each birthday wish is $20. We have a few spots remaining for November and December! Reserve your spot today!
If you have any questions, please contact Jodi at carawayvpfunding@gmail.com.
October Festive Friday -- 4th Grade
Once a month, PTA Hospitality pairs with a different grade for Festive Friday, which is a luncheon for the staff with a food truck, snacks and drinks. Parents of the hosting grade work together to provide the yummy food and serve the wonderful staff. We start with 5th grade in September and work our way down to Kinder in April. This month, 4th grade families will host! Date TBD.
