“🌯🌮 CHIPOTLE SPIRIT NIGHT! 🌮🌯

It’s time to make dinner count… because cooking is overrated anyway. 😂

Join us at Chipotle on September 30 from 5:00–9:00 PM for our Spirit Night! A portion of the proceeds will be donated back to our school. 🎉🏫

So skip the kitchen, grab your crew, and come eat some Chipotle for a good cause! 🌯❤️

Because apparently, eating chips and queso can be considered community service. 😉

📅 September 30
⏰ 5:00–9:00 PM
📍 Chipotle
💰 A portion of proceeds benefits our school

Bring your family, bring your friends, bring your appetite… just don’t bring your own dinner. 😂🌯

💙 Grandparents Day Volunteers Needed!

Grandparents Day is a fun Ditto tradition where students have the opportunity to enjoy a meal with their grandparents!

To make space for all of our special guests, only students with grandparents attending will eat in the cafeteria. Students without grandparents attending will eat in their classrooms with their teachers.

We need volunteers to help cover lunch duty so teachers can enjoy lunch with the students in their classrooms. Please sign up for as many time slots as you are available to help.

Thank you for helping us make Grandparents Day a special experience for our students, families, and teachers!
