Good evening Blue Jay families. First, we want to thank our Fantastic PTA for a Fabulous Fall Festival. Our Year-Long Fast Pass Winners are Lainey Bisbee, Jace and Rachel Hilderbran, and Avery Cline. These started today. Next, we want to thank everyone for our successful Catalog Sale. We do not have everything finalized for who the top winners are but we will have that next week.
