Thankful Turkeys- The PTA would like to decorate the front lawn of the school with Thankful Turkey signs for November. Exactly how they did with the hearts last winter. For new families you would purchase the white weather resistant sign (shaped like a turkey) and decorate however you would like for display on the top of the lawn running alongside Marino Dr. When decorating just keep in mind the weather elements; permanent markers/paint and securing any items to last the week it is on display. Each sign is $15. Orders will be due by Thursday, Nov. 4th
You should receive your sign to decorate the weekend of Nov. 13th and decorated signs will be collected on Nov. 19th.
