welcomeFlexibility is a Superpower...AGAIN!
We made it through the rollercoaster year that was 2020, but it seems the ride's not quite over yet. As we enter this new 2021 school year, I want you to know that your PTO is committed to provide fun and safe community building activities and support to our teachers, administration, staff, and students throughout the year. While our events may continue to shift and look different from what they have in the past, we will continue to be positive representatives of our school, volunteering where needed, and loving on our Dogwood family as much as possible. We hope you will support our efforts by joining the PTO and volunteering along with us when needed. If you have any questions about the PTO or our events/programs/activities, please email me. I look forward to serving as your PTO Pandemic President! Karen Viotti PTO President |
