Thank you!

The online auction was a HUGE success! It raised $6,415! 

This money will fund our Free Family Programs, provide student assistance, help cover many school needs, and pay for our upcoming Yuck Science assembly (happening in January).

For a sneak preview of what to expect from the Yuck Science program, check out the video below.

If you missed picking up your auction items, you can pick up at the school on Monday 12/12 at 5pm-5:45pm. Please email Nancy at president@reedpta.org with questions.
