"Since we first stepped into Clark for kindergarten orientation almost four years ago, we knew this was more than school, this was community. I love connecting people and am grateful to support the families, staff, and our community through the efforts of the PTO." - Jess Wroughton, Jr. Communications Officer

Scholastic Book Fair: Thank you for everyone's support in making this year's book fair a big success. We had over $10,000 in sales, and will be receiving a little over $5,100 in Scholastic Dollars in return! By choosing to take our proceeds from Scholastic in “Scholastic Dollars,” we are able to receive 50% of the total sales of the book fair. Scholastic Dollars can be used to purchase a variety of things including books of course, but also classroom items, furniture, technology, curriculum materials, and more. So $5,000 can go a long way to keep our library and classrooms current.
If you have any questions or ideas for future Book Fairs, please reach out to Katie Heitgerd at katiehufford@gmail.com or Emily Odum at emmaodum@gmail.com.
