PTA Wish List

At the beginning of each school year, each teacher is given the opportunity to make a wish list for the PTA. This program was started to help teachers get items for their classrooms, without having to purchase them out of their own pockets. The teachers that turned in their wish lists were pleasantly surprised when their wishes were granted! These little things do not amount to a lot, but they help the teachers, and they also help the students. This is an ongoing project for the PTA: one that we feel is much appreciated by the teachers.
