Greetings Seminole families!
The FundRays stats are in and WOW we could be headed for a major win, Seminoles!! As of right now, you all have hit a little over $10k in earnings for our school! What a win! Let's make it a major win and get those remaining orders turned in!
Tomorrow is the last day to turn in FundRays orders. Reaching our school goal of $15,000 earns our students a popsicle party and the chance to pie their favorite admin. The top 3 sellers earn a cash prize and the top selling class earns their teacher a mobile car detail.
Let's work together and shoot for the stars, Seminoles!

Thank you so much to the K9 deputies, Deputy Haun, Deputy Patterson, K9 Beau and K9 Jedi who came out to visit our 1st graders! The students loved learning how K9s work, seeing their skills in action, and meeting these amazing four-legged officers. It was such a fun and educational experience, and we’re so grateful for the time you spent with our kids. Thank you for all you do to keep our community safe!
