Spring Direct Donation Campaign Ends Today

Please donate today to support the Columbia ES PTA in their fundraising goal of $7,400 for the Spring Direct Donation campaign. All proceeds will go toward replacing up to six whiteboards in our classrooms and two friendship benches for outside the school. So far they have raised $1,505. 

You can donate on Memberhub (https://columbiapta.memberhub.com/store/items/833023) or return your donation (cash or check payable to Columbia ES PTA) in an envelope labeled to the PTA with your child to return to the office on Monday. Thank you to all who have supported this effort.
