HERE’S WHAT THE PTA HAS BEEN UP TO

Silver Diner Spirit Night

This month we hosted a fun family restaurant night at Silver Diner! We loved seeing so many friends show up and dine out!

We also hosted a fun community yoga class in partnership with CorePower Yoga in Falls Church! With over 40 participants the class sold out and we raised $865! Thank you to our friends who spent a Sunday afternoon getting mindful on their mats. 

On March 1st, the PTA also recognized our souper teachers and staff with a potluck lunch thanks to the generous contributions of families!
