POPCORN HELPERS - Friday Afternoons
Would you like to help with Popcorn? We need someone to pick up popcorn from Flix Brewhouse and/or fill the small bags at the school. No experience required! Volunteer Signup Form
Popcorn is sold for 50 cents per bag, or purchase a $10 Popcorn Pass to get popcorn once a month for the whole year!
Back to School? Birthday? Teacher Appreciation Week? Just Because? Here's a link to staff's favorite things and wish lists.
Karen Acres PTO wins Prairie Meadows Community Betterment Grant
We're thrilled to share that the Karen Acres PTO has been awarded a Prairie Meadows Community Betterment Grant! Thanks to this generous grant, the PTO will be purchasing a portion of the school supplies for ALL Karen Acres students for the upcoming school year. This means our families will have fewer items to buy!
Updated supply lists are now available here and reflect only the items that families need to provide. All other supplies will be covered through the grant funding.
We are so grateful to Prairie Meadows for the support and we hope this eases the back-to-school process for everyone!
Need a new field trip shirt?
Classes will be using the same field trip shirt as last year. If needed, you can purchase a replacement here.
While you’re out shopping, don’t forget to scan your receipt! Download the app and use referral code PTOU9Q1V to get the school some extra money.
Join our optional Grade-Level Student Directory to help families connect for playdates, birthday invitations, and more!
