Thanks for Coming out to Play, Wildcats!

We loved seeing our entire Wildcat community at our annual family picnic. 

We hope you enjoyed dancing, juggling, playing games and hanging out with our Wildcat community, celebrating a fantastic school year!

 

End of the School Year Gifting Made Easy!

With the end of the school year approaching, consider contributing toward a gift for your child's teacher, aide, or other school staff. Ivy Hall PTO is working with GiftCrowd to coordinate these gifts.  This group-gifting platform allows the recipient to choose the gift card that they would enjoy, based on the group donation of gifts.
