Hello Tiger families!

A lot of exciting events are coming up over the next couple months:

• Popcorn Fridays are back at Garfield and they are FREE! On the last Friday of each month, teachers will give each student a popcorn ticket to redeem during lunch recess!
• Monday, February 6 we will be having our next dine-out night at The New Mexicans from 5-8pm. They are generously donating 20% of sales to the PTA.
• Thursday, March 9th we will be hosting a bingo night at the Garfield cafeteria. All families are welcome and encouraged to join! More details coming soon.
• Work is also in progress to host a carnival in the spring.

If you would like to be involved in planning or volunteering any of these or other events, please reach out to us at garfieldtigerspta@gmail.com. If you would like to help support these events via a donation, please feel free to visit our Amazon wishlist. We rely on the generosity of our families and community members to continue to bring experiences to our students. Thank you for your continued support!
