Happy New Year Everyone! 2025 has some really exciting events coming up!
We have started our basketball season and I absolutely love watching the community come together and cheer on the team. The students love to show their school spirit on game day!
In January we have a lot of celebrations coming up. We will be celebrating MLK school wide with an assembly and a collaborative art project that is based off the history of Gee's Bend. We are also celebrating LNY at the end of the month with an assembly of lion dance and kung fu performances. We will also have booths with LNY activities for grade levels to attend.
With many 3 day weekend holidays, there usually is a rise of student absence. Please consider the importance of school attendance as you plan vacations.
GO BLAZERS!

Lost and Found
Our fabulous Lost and Found team are in desperate need of more volunteers! We have some volunteers that come 15 minutes before picking students to organize racks. It makes a very big difference keeping the racks organize for our school. Please reach out to me if you feel like you can donate some time!
Our next donation date will be February 28th, Friday.

We have a group of boys and girls that would love to have a soccer team at our school. Please let me know if you're interested in coaching boys and/or girls team!

We need some parent volunteers to lead events! There are two possible events we can have this year-but we need someone to lead them!
a) Golden Sneaker Competition (Alameda County Walk/Roll to School has a competition in March --prizes and promo supplies are already purchased by the county, but we will need a parent or two to be the planner(s) for this event). Registration for this Alameda County sponsored event is due 1/31/2025.
b) Cultural Night - some schools have hosted a parent-led cultural night filled with dances, performances, talent shows, food, and other fun festivities. If planning this kind of event interests you, please sign up!
Without any parent leads, we will go ahead and close out these events and not host them this year. Please email: vp.bringhurstpto@gmail.com if interested in leading!
