Student Community Service Project
Jude White, a Pollard alumni, built two new picnic tables located at the soccer field for her Girl Scout Silver award. As part of this project she is sharing a link to the plans she used to build these tables for any other places around the school or community that you think might benefit from improved seating so that you can build your own.

Welcome to the PTA Corner!
As we enter a time of giving thanks, the PTA would like to express gratitude to all of YOU this year. We wish you a happy and healthy Thanksgiving. As you reflect this holiday season about what you are thankful for and how you wish to show your thanks, we hope you will consider a gift to the PTA through the No Fuss Fundraiser as a way to support the Pollard Community. There will be a separate opportunity coming soon to contribute directly to Holiday Gifts for the staff, but this is A NO FUSS way to generally support the entire Pollard Student, Teacher, and Staff Body: http://app.memberhub.gives/nofuss
