2nd Grade Musical: Little Red Hen
What a fantastic performance last night by our 2nd graders! It was so fun to watch the students perform their songs, dances, and instruments. It was wonderful to see so many of our parents, grandparents and other family members. Thanks so much for your support. A special thank you to the staff who planned and made this performance possible: Mrs. Marble, Mrs. Braun, Mrs. Rangeloff, Mrs. Mungroo, Ms. Hutton, and Ms. Kerns

Parent Pride:
A Parent Volunteer Group
Parent Pride Committees
The Parent Pride, a parent volunteer group, is an integral part of the Cottonwood community. Each year this group of volunteers help to organize and fund raise for the events and activities that take place at Cottonwood. There are no membership dues so we depend on donations or participation of our fund-raising events. We hope that you will consider volunteering your time to support one of these events. Please remember to check our weekly newsletter for other volunteer opportunities. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Gina Rudloff at 402-715-1390 or gkrudloff@mpsomaha.org.
