Our Annual Hero Night was a huge success. We want to thank all of the fantastic volunteers, families, and community heroes who helped out and supported this event. We started the event with a school assembly with visits from some of our local heroes such as police, firemen, nurses, and  military. That evening the PTA sponsored a Hero Night event with food trucks, a train, activities, carnival games, and demonstrations by police, K-9, firefighters, ambulance workers. It was a great night and we were so happy to see all of you there.

This week we held a Carnival Game Competition where students of all grades could create and present a carnival game idea for our Hero Night. The four winners chosen will each get to host their game tonight at Hero Night. They have some really fun games for you so stop by Hero Night, Friday 4/28, from 5-8 pm. 

Congratulations to our winners: Hoven, Jett, Halle, and Brinley. Thanks for the amazing games!
