Husky Happenings
Brought to you by the PTO
Walk Through Revolution

Last Monday and today, our 5th graders have been on a journey to learn more about the history of our country - with their Walk Through Revolution adventure! There were games, music, historical re-enactments, hands-on projects and storytelling to really help history come alive! 

Students learned about historical events and key figures - and then put on a presentation attended by parents to share what they learned.

Have a question about how this nation began? Ask a 5th grader!

The PTO is proud to be able to fund this immersive program, along with "Walk Through California" that our 4th graders experienced last month! 

Volunteer Here
It's not too late to join the PTO!

In fact... it's NEVER too late! You can become a member of the PTO with your donation whenever it works best for YOU. Our husky backpack buddies will be delivered to new members WEEKLY moving forward - they go into your teacher's mailbox and they get them to your student. Remember, payment plan options are available too!
