Craft Show
Our spring craft fair is quickly approaching! On April 4th we will fill the middle school with crafters for a one day only show! This is a great opportunity to earn money in your student's accounts! $2 per hour for each person working goes into your student's accounts.
We are also going to do class baskets for the raffle for the spring. Be on the lookout for the theme for your student's grade!
If you're an organized individual and are willing to help co-lead the craft shows next year, please email us and let us know!
