Art Night

Dear Families,  

Art Night is almost here, and we in the PTA are very excited to put on a wonderful event for all you, but we are a small crew, so we're going to need some volunteers to help us pull this off. From serving food to running craft stations to helping set up or clean up, there are so many different ways you can be help. Please sign up at this link if you can swing it and please know that assistance from parents and guardians like you makes events like this possible. 

Thank you for your time, 

Whittier PTA
