Popcorn Day

Our first popcorn day of the year was held on Friday, October 5th, but it is not too late to order popcorn. Popcorn day in November will be held on Friday, November 9th, due to no school on Friday the 2nd. You can pre-order popcorn for the entire year by returning $3.00 to your child’s teacher. Popcorn can also be purchased the morning of popcorn day for only $.50 a bag. Simply have your child come to the cafeteria through the bus loop door before school.

If you are interested in helping at future popcorn days, please sign up below.
