Delivered! 🐾💚 Our PTSA Staff Grants are officially in teachers' hands. From classroom supplies to fun student incentives - every item was hand-picked by a teacher who shows up for our kids every single day. These items were made possible by your support at the Book Fair - thank you for investing in our teachers and our school. Go Panthers! 🐾

🌟 Tonight we celebrated TWO incredible honorees from Polk at the CFBISD Council PTA Life Member Reception - and they couldn’t be more deserving!

What an honor to celebrate you both tonight!

Our Polk STAAR-studded staff deserved to be celebrated today, and Polk PTSA made sure they were! A huge thank you to our community partner Chick-fil-A Trinity Mills (2425 Old Denton Rd, Carrollton, TX) for making this special lunch possible. Our teachers and staff give everything to our students - today we got to give a little back!

Every day, our staff shows up with heart, creativity, and a passion for helping students succeed. 💚💙 Congratulations to our 9 PTSA Staff Grant Winners - it is our honor to invest in YOU so you can continue investing in our kids. We are so grateful! 🎉
