We want to give a huge "Thank You" to everyone who came out on Friday Night to the Junction Hill PTO Fall Carnival. We are so grateful to all of the PTO Volunteers who worked so hard in putting everything together, and to everyone who helped out and donated items for the Fall Carnival. All of the proceeds the PTO raised are invested right back into the classrooms for students and student projects. The PTO was able to raise $6,027. This is our best total in a long time! Thank you again to all who attended, and the night of fun and activities was a huge success.
