My Project

We want to invite families to a special event that allows them to spend time with their children and celebrate love on Valentine’s Day!

Research shows that parent engagement in schools is closely linked to better student behavior, higher academic achievement, and enhanced social skills.

It also gives us an opportunity to connect, and for other parents to make connections as well!

Our families are craving more engagement since COVID-19, and with your help, they could share in a special day filled with beautiful memories that will last a lifetime!
