Hello Gunpowder Families,

Here are some PTA updates and upcoming events:

School Store- every Friday in December

We are excited to bring back the school store and have some new items to purchase!

*Students will be allowed to shop the following days- cash only event.

 12/6: K & 5th grades

12/13: 1st & 4th grades

12/20: 2nd & 3rd grades

*Students will be allowed to purchase 3 items.

We are excited to announce that our membership goal for this year was met! As a thank you, each student will receive a coupon for a free school store item. On their assigned shopping day, students can use their coupon to redeem 1 free Squishie, pencil, or holiday bracelet! (one item per student!) Students must check in with their home room teacher before shopping to receive their coupon!

We are in need of volunteers to help with the school store. Please visit PTBoard to sign up!
