See what we did there….
Another successful Holiday Shop is in the books for Mirage PTSA. As always we are overwhelmed by your support. This event is stressful for us, but it makes it all worth it to help these kids learn the spirit of giving and how to budget. We recieved hugs and thank you’s from many students this year, which warms our hearts.
HUGE thank you to our volunteers this year! Lance(Treasurer), Nicole(Secretary) and Janine(Vice President) worked every day, every shift. Holly Darr, Wil Johnson, Wendy Palmer, TJ Macaluso, Stacey Prozzi and Debi Stalteri were a big help this year as well!
Please take a moment to review the calendar on our website for upcoming meetings, events and fundraisers. Feel free to reach out to us with any questions, comments or concerns.
Thank you!
We sent a volunteer form home just before Thanksgiving break. If you are interested in volunteering for our Holiday Shop, please return the form to school with your kiddo or contact us at mirageptsa@gmail.com for more information!
