Admission is free! Bingo boards, raffle tickets, and food will be for sale, and every dollar goes right back into student programs and classroom grants.

Cookies for Our Wonderful Staff

Our teachers and staff pour their hearts into our kids every day, and the PTSA wants to thank them with a holiday treat party! Please send in something for the staff to share and enjoy. Homemade or store-bought, it’s all appreciated.

Drop off treats at the school office:

• Monday, December 14 (after school), or
• Tuesday, December 15 (before school)

Let’s fill the staff room with cookies and show the SLE team how much they mean to us!

Holiday Craft Bazaar

Saturday, December 5 · 10 AM–2 PM · SLE Gym · Open to the public

Shop local makers, bakers, and crafters while supporting the PTSA! You’ll find unique holiday gifts and tasty treats. Bring friends and neighbors too, since everyone is welcome.

Our very own Disney Stars Drama Club will host a gift-wrapping station to raise money for their spring production of The Little Mermaid Kids. Bring your holiday gifts and get your wrapping done early!

Thank You for Running 2 Be Kind!

Together, our Run 2 Be Kind raised over $7,000 for school programs. Thank you to every runner, cheerleader, and donor! To celebrate, students danced the recess away with Ollie the Otter on Friday, November 6th.

Missed your chance to give? It’s not too late! You can still make a donation online.

Double your gift: Many employers match charitable donations. Email info@slptsa.org and we’ll help you find out how.
