🍳🥞 DON’T FORGET — THIS FRIDAY! 🥪🍟

Prairie View families, we have an easy (and delicious!) way to support our school this week! 🧡🖤

📅 Friday, September 4
⏰ 6:30 AM – 2:00 PM
📍 Star 34 Café — Sandwich, IL

Stop by Star 34 Café for breakfast or lunch, and Star 34 Café owner Larry will generously kick back a portion of the day’s sales to Prairie View Elementary PPA! 🙌

And with 11:10 AM dismissal on Friday, it’s the PERFECT excuse to skip making lunch! 🎉 Pick up the kids and head over to Star 34 Café for lunch with your Prairie View friends and families. 🥪🍟

Every meal helps support the PPA and the fun activities and events we’re able to provide for our Prairie View students and families. 🧡

Please SHARE this post, tag your Prairie View friends, and help us spread the word! The more families who stop in, the more we can raise! 🖤🧡

We hope to see lots of familiar faces at Star 34 Café this Friday! 🍳☕🥞

Thank you for supporting Prairie View Elementary PPA and our amazing local businesses! 🧡🖤

If you enjoyed Saturday night… come see what we’re dreaming up next. 🧡🖤

Our first public PPA meeting of the school year is this Wednesday and we’d LOVE to have you there!

And just a little reminder: you do not have to be on the PPA Board to attend a meeting. These meetings are for ALL Prairie View parents & caregivers. 🫶🏼
Bring your ideas. Bring your questions. Bring something you’d love to see happen this year. Bring a concern, a compliment, or simply come listen and see what we’re working on.

We want our meetings to be a space where Prairie View families feel comfortable showing up, speaking up and being part of making this an incredible year for our kids. 🥹

Saturday night showed us just how special things can be when our school community comes together and we’re only getting started. 🧡
