Endhaven Elementary PTA

October 28, 2022

Hello Endhaven Families,

Wow! Thank you for showing your support for our school in a big way during our annual Boosterthon fundraiser. Through your donations, sharing, and support, we met our goal of $25,000 for an electronic/digital marquee, grounds/campus enhancements, a school-wide student incentive program and staff appreciation. We are so proud of the students for completing the Cougar Fun Run! 

We have a few updates to share with you as we head into November. You may view the full PTA calendar of events here: Endhaven/PTA Calendar list format 2022-2023 – Google Docs

Holiday Food Drive with Ballantyne Families Open Now through 11/4

We need your help to support the upcoming holiday food drives with Ballantyne Families Helping Neighbors in Need. This group works directly to support students AND staff in the 9-area schools that feed to Ardrey Kell High School. In the past, Endhaven has received more support than any other school and we’d love your help to give back. 

If you need food assistance, please contact Ms. Tucker (our school counselor) to connect with this group confidentially. 

Any denomination will help make a difference!

This year, we’re raising money to support our school-wide student incentive program and continue to make campus improvements, such as the new window graphics we were able to install on our front entrance from last year’s Boosterthon funds. We’re excited to hopefully be able to upgrade our front entrance sign to include a digital/electronic marquee! See flier here for more details: Boosterthon Registration flier
