Happy Spring Break Twin Groves! Thank you to everyone who came out and participated in our many fundraisers this past week! It was a busy week with 3 on 3 Basketball, a Book Fair, and Bake Sale, and we appreciate your support. We hope everyone enjoys Spring Break (and hopefully some spring weather)!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU to our wonderful chairpersons! Janet Ventrella and Vandana Kanduri did an amazing job organized and running our Spring Book Fair. Tracey Wright and Michelle Mottlowitz organized a delicious brunch for the teachers during conferences, and Tracey Wright also put together a very successful Bake Sale. We really appreciate all their hard work, and we also thank everyone who helped with these committees!
