ALL 5th Graders—  DARE Graduation – May 30th 7:00 in the High School Auditorium. We ask that the following day (5/31) all students wear their DARE shirts or bring their DARE shirts to school. The students have a tradition of signing each others shirts on the day after graduation.  Stay with your children and listen to an inspirational speaker and watch your child graduate.

One of the biggest wishes we heard as a PTO Board this year and years past was, “more swings please!” We are so excited that careful budgeting and successful fundraisers, thanks to your generous support, allowed the PTO to make the “more swings” wish come true in a big, bright and beautiful way. These new Franklin colored blue and yellow swing sets completely replaced the existing ones allowing us to have more swings in total. Yay! Thanks to Mrs. Mirrione, Rodrigo and Angelo Palumbo for their contributions in making this great addition to our school happen.

Please join us on Friday, June 2nd at 8:30am in the cafeteria for the final PTO meeting of the year.  We want to thank and celebrate all our volunteers with some breakfast treats and a surprise giveaway.   The incoming PTO Executive Board slate will be voted on. PTO Executive Board Proposed Slate for 2017/2018 President – Christie Engel Vice President – Melissa Madden VP Communications – Rachel Callahan Asst VP Communications – Renata Estupinan Treasurer – Paula Rush Asst Treasurer – Caroline Heyer Volunteer Coordinator – Isabel Ribeiro We hope to see you all there!
