Arts and Education Programming
More than half of our funds the PTO receives are used for added cirriculum events that we call Arts and Education Programming (AEP).
Some may remember it as Enrichment, as it was called in years past. To know what is scheduled for the year, we will post
a calendar of events as well as information on the event and reviews after the event.
