Thank you to all the volunteers who helped us with Jingle Jam 2020 and our Popcorn Movie Day! We are grateful to have been able to have a fun few days for our students in the midst of an unprecedented year.
Yearbook sales end Friday, January 29th - and the current price is $35. We will order a limited amount of extras to be sold in May, but that number will be quite small, so please order your yearbooks now!
Remote students can send their headshots to be added to your classroom page to yearbook@powellpto.org by Friday, January 29.
