PANTHER NEWS
Landscaping Day: As stated in a special Friday message, Landscaping Day was moved to Saturday, April 14 from 9:30 a.m. to 12 noon. Our major focus will be to clean out the butterfly garden, collect sticks and pinecones, and to pull weeds. Please bring gloves, buckets, rakes and shovels. We also need a weed wacker and front loader tractor. PTA will provide water and snacks. If you can spare some time to help "spruce up" our school for the upcoming Spring Fling please sign up HERE. For more information about the cleanup please email valeriedebruin@icloud.com. We need to have AT LEAST 8 adults to make this work. If we don't have enough volunteers we will cancel the event. See you there!
