Trunk or Treat!

Trunk or Treat — Oct 30, 6-7pm!

Our Trunk or Treat event is coming soon — Friday, October 30, 6-7pm in the Peter Kirk parking lot — and we need YOUR help to make it frightfully fun! 

Want to join the spooky fun? Host a trunk — treats and tricks will be provided by the PTSA. All we ask is that you bring your spook-tacular trunk spirit! 

Donate goodies — the spooky cauldron is outside the main doors… do you dare fill it with candy???  Every bit of help makes a monstrous difference! Or check out our wish list for donating treats HERE. 

Volunteer to set up or clean up after the event. Click HERE to sign up.

Want more than just tricks or treats? Our 4th graders will be selling pizza to raise money for Camp Seymour. 

We can’t wait to SEE you there!! Thank you to our event Sponsor, Urban Eyes.

Halloween Candy Buy Back

10/21/2026 5:03 pm

After the Halloween fun, join us on the blacktop:

Monday, Nov 2 & Tuesday, Nov 3 - 8:10 – 8:40 AM (before school) 

Our awesome volunteers will weigh and collect wrapped candy — trading each pound of sweets for cold, hard cash!

We’re thrilled that Neal Smiles Orthodontics is back as our sponsor this year—they’ll pay $1 per pound to reward healthy habits and then ship all the collected candy to support our U.S. Troops.

We Need Morning Helpers! 
Want to join the fun? Help weigh candy, hand out cash, and keep the smiles flowing!

Outdoor Education

10/21/2026 4:47 pm

Second grade fall garden lessons are complete, and these kids worked hard! Each class started in the outdoor classroom, learning how bulbs and seeds store food for winter and where mason bees go when it gets cold. (They’re asleep in cocoons until spring!) 

Then the classes walked over and cleared out last year's beds, planted bulbs, and added new plants like rosemary, violas, and ornamental kale.

A special thank-you to our parent volunteers. We had a great turnout, and you made it possible for every kid to dig in. 

Stop by this winter and spring to see what pops up. Great work, kiddos!

Keep those math minds working, Eagles! 

Detectives!

10/21/2026 4:41 pm

A Lesson in Bullying Prevention

Thanks to PTSA funding, students enjoyed Detectives!, an entertaining and educational performance by Taproot Theatre. Through humor and storytelling, students learned important lessons about recognizing bullying, standing up for themselves and others, and knowing when to ask for help.  

Ask your kids about the 3 R’s (and the secret fourth R)! Can they remember them?

Hint: Recognize, Report, Refuse… and Repeat!
