WOW...WOW...WOW...Is all we can say about the overwhelming job our parents and students did in this year 's Little Caeser 's Pizza Kit Fundraiser! Many students not only covered their costume fees, but tuition for the next couple of months as well! Raising a whopping $14,000 not only helped families raise money for costumes, but will also help our program grow. We sincerely appreciate everyone who participated.
Congratulations to this year 's Top Seller who not only was able to pay off all of her costumes but have proceeds left over for tuition. Great Job Preia and mom!
