The 2023-2024 school year went by so quickly! We have made so many happy memories, shared so many wonderful times, and learned so much together as a Parklawn family. As the summer approaches, we will take time to pause, reflect, and celebrate as we prepare for the 2024-2024 school year. We wish our everyone a wonderful summer full of fun!
This will be the last “official” weekly Panther Press for the 2023-2024 school year. However, there will be summer editions of the Panther Press to share important updates. Stay tuned for information such as welcome back events and our Family Reunion in August!

Get a head start on preparing for the 2024-25 school year by ordering your student's school supply kit through Campus Survival! The kits include everything that students will need, and will be delivered to the classroom before school starts. A portion of the price comes back to Parklawn PTA to support activities like treats at the Family Reunion picnic, staff appreciation events, and next year's Bingo Night! You can order online (www.campussurvivalkits.com/parklawn) or return the order form (sent home last week) with payment to the school. Please place your order by July 15! |
