Game night at KCC

Laura, from Whale of a Time Parties will be putting together a fun-filled family game night! The theme of this event is still under consideration, but it’s sure to be a blast!

Celebrations:

The PTO is happy to share that our annual Shop and Support at the Mashpee Commons raised $150! Thank you to everyone who shopped locally during this event! For those of you who might not be aware of just what the PTO does with the money it raises, one recent example is that we purchased a new drying rack for the art classroom! Last year, the picnic tables in the courtyard were purchased. We are planning to add more, with the hope that students and teachers can enjoy outside classroom time during the warmer months.

Thank you all for your continued support of the PTO! Happy January!

Connected Community!
