Join our PTO Meeting June 11th at 5:30 PM!
Attention parents and families!
We are in need of additional officers for next year's PTO board. Most of our current board members are at the end of their terms, and we currently have a need for a President and Vice-President.
Our PTO has been a big source of support for the school and staff, and has organized many fun events for students over the past several years. Please consider taking a role in helping this organization stay active and strong. Without parents stepping up to help, we won't be able to provide these experiences for our wonderful school.
We will meet this Thursday June 11th at 5:30 in the main office conference room. Please join us - if you have questions or want to express interest in a position, you can email us at houndspta@gmail.com

RoCo Summer Reading Trail kicks off June 5th! Let's get reading!
Beginning Friday June 5th, local businesses will serve as stops along the “Reading Trail.” At each location, families will find a children’s book to read together. After visiting, an employee will stamp the family’s RoCo Reading Trail Tracker. Students will work to collect stamps from each stop along the trail. No purchase necessary. Maps will be sent home this week to students, keep them in a safe place and get as many stamps as you can!
At the end of the program, families who complete all stops on the map will be entered into a Grand Prize Drawing. In addition, every child who completes at least 12 stops will receive a prize. Prizes will be distributed at each school’s Back to School Open House.
