WILLIAMS NOTE: In honor of Veteran's Day next week, our HESD partner schools will be participating in the For the Troops Donation Drive. Please check out the flyer for a description of the For the Troops organization's donation drive to provide our military partners with "We Care" packages containing basic necessities, goodies, games and best of all...a show of support. Please review the list of preferred items and if you decide to participate, please feel free to drop off any donated items with the office team.

Our Williams PTA invites you to Movie Night on Friday, 10/27/2023 from 6:00-7:30 PM. We will be showing "Coco" in the school cafeteria. PTA will be selling snacks and raffling prizes at the end of the movie. Families are invited to bring their blankets, pillows and chairs.

Please remember that ALL PTA fundraiser orders and the corresponding cash payment should be turned in to your child's teacher or the office THIS WEEK. This will give us enough time to process orders so that families can pick up their product orders one week before Thanksgiving Break (the week of November 13). We appreciate your support and cooperation. Thank you, Principal Granado

We appreciate your help in getting this task completed for our district partners...thank you! --Principal Granado
