Have a Donut with Dad!

breakfast

Thursday, October 13, 7:00-8:15 a.m.

It's time again to celebrate the wonderful dads, grandpas, uncles, friends, and other special men in our kids' lives. Join us for our annual Dads' Breakfast, "Dad's for Donuts", on Thursday October 13, 7:00-8:15am in the Downes Cafeteria. Our breakfast buffet will include donuts, bagels, muffins, yogurt, fresh fruit, juice, milk, coffee, and hot chocolate. Dad's for Donuts is sponsored by the PTA and is a fun family-and-school activity.

Admission is $5 for adults and $3 for children if you register by Monday, October 10, and walk-ins will be charged $6/adult and $4/child at the door. Any proceeds will benefit school programs throughout the year.

Please remember that parking will be limited to the side streetts around the school as teachers need to park in the school parking lot and buses need to bring the children to school.
