Pumpkin Patch Contributions - Thank You, Rabia Alizai & Dave Clark

Many thanks to local realtors Rabia Alizai and the Dave Clark Team for donating $500 each toward the annual Ponderosa Pumpkin Patch, which took place on October 19. We are grateful for their generosity and support, which helped us ensure that every Ponderosa student was able to take home a free pumpkin on that day.

Join the PTSA!

PTSA is a volunteer-run organization that coordinates activities and events to build school spirit and support the Ponderosa community. Membership in the PTSA gives you a voice in our school community and helps us raise funds for activities such as Ponderosa International Night and Halloween Happening.

Ponderosa Parents Facebook Group 

There is a Ponderosa parent group on Facebook! Ponderosa Elementary School Families. If you would like to join this online parent community, please note that there are mandatory membership questions, such as the name of your child’s teacher and classroom number, in order to keep the group secure and to respect the privacy of our Ponderosa families.
