Dear Park Students and Staff,
It’s the last hoorah for making this year great. Time to honor (ha ha ha) our teachers once more.

Student council is starting a new fundraiser called “Being COOL with Water.” FOR ONE WEEK This endeavor will raise money for the organization called “Thrones for Homes.” This program buys eco-friendly waterless composting toilets for South American families in need. This may sound silly but every family needs a toilet and without toilets families have to go into the woods making it unhealthy and unsafe. $300 will buy a compostable toilet for one family; $1000 will buy a well for four families.
