January Teacher & Staff Appreciation

Baked Potato Bar Appreciation Event
Monday January 27th

With the current vibes around your home, you’re already aware we are days away from finals week and end of the first semester of the 2024-25 school year. Students are the only ones feeling the crunch during this time, as our staff are working long hours to administer and review finals, close out student grades for the term and get the second semester off to a great start.

To help keep them fueled during this long week, we are hosting a Baked Potato Bar on Monday, January 27th as part of our ongoing appreciation PSO Staff Appreciation Program. Your help and gesture of gratitude is a meaningful way to remind them how valued they are by our community.
