Washington-Monroe PTO hosts new fun event for the community

[May 07, 2025]  The Washington-Monroe School PTO was looking for a way to earn money for the school while also engaging families from the community.

Using the same plan as the reward system for students, but on a much larger scale, they decided to try a family fun day for all families in the whole community.

The funds raised through this carnival are used to support various types of classrooms learning and aid in providing fun experiences for the students throughout the school year. Such fun activities include the funding for an annual trip for all students to the movies during the holiday season, year-end activities, and the yearly bounce house day.

The dedicated parents and teachers at this school are beyond excited that Saturday’s Community Carnival turned out so well despite the wet, cooler weather. The PTO is hoping that this will be the first of many more annual carnivals, although they may be switching up the month to try and position it with a warmer time of year!
