Cougar Connect- October 20th, 2024
Hello Coolidge PTO Families,
We had another gorgeous weekend and I hope you all enjoyed it! Please read on for information about Harvest Fest, an upcoming PTO-sponsored Author Visit, and gratitude for our Golf Outing Committee!
Harvest Fest - This Thursday!
Harvest Fest is this Thursday after school! See the graphic below for all the details.
Please remember that this is not a drop-off event. Children must be supervised by a responsible adult.
Harvest Fest Committee Announcements
Thank you to all of our Harvest Fest volunteers! If you signed up to decorate pumpkins, please bring them to the upper blacktop this Thursday morning during drop off.
We are still looking for more volunteers to help out on the day of Harvest Fest. Please continue to sign up on the sign up sheet. This is one of the Coolidge PTO’s favorite events and we want to make it a success for our kids!
