Dooley PTA Information

Thanks to Marla’s Lunch and our wonderful parent volunteers we are able to offer Fun Lunch twice a week! Some fun lunch options coming up include: Buona Beef, Felicia’s Deli, Panda Express, Culver’s, Corner Bakery and more! Orders must be placed by 9 a.m. for service the following week. Register your account and place orders here!

This Spring our Fun Lunch Team is looking to offer three days of fun lunches, but we need a new co-chair who can commit one day a week to distribute these lunches.  If you are interested please email [email protected] for more information.  Or reach out at #fun-lunch in Slack.

Our PTA is participating in the National PTA’s “School of Excellence” program, which helps us provide our community with the best possible PTA experience.  Click here to take the School of Excellence survey (available in both Japanese and English).

Please update your calendars – Holiday Movie Night on 12/16  has been canceled.
