COME ONE, COME ALL!
Pine Ridge is having a used book sale to help Gateway mission. We are asking that each student bring in 1-5 used books, to donate to the sale. Each book will be vetted and leveled so that on sale day kids can shop by their general interest and level. We have two goals with this sale, one is to raise money to purchase items for the mission that will help those in need in our community with basic essential items. The second is to get different and hopefully fresh books into your child's hands before reading month comes around in March. We will take 2 weeks (Feb. 17-27) to collect books and hope to run the sale the week of March 6th. More information on shopping coming soon! :)
The girls running club needs you!
We are ready to start signing up girls for our Pine Ridge running club but can not do so until we have some coaches. This will run from 3:15-4:30 on Mondays and Wednesdays. It will culminate with a fun run during Tulip Time. Please contact the office if you are interested.
