Congratulations to the Seth Boyden Elementary School 5th grade class of 2020. We wish you all the best as you move up to middle school!
As a PTA, we need to say that we see and acknowledge the particular pain, anger, and trauma that so many of our Black students and families and community members of color are feeling following the recent police killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor.
We wanted to give a special shout out to Alomo Books, which gave our Seth Boyden Book Pantry a huge donation of books, toys, and crafts.
The AIE grant will bring an expert in African-American step dancing to Seth Boyden.
Watch the video for greetings from Mrs. Glander and important messages about the plans for the rest of the school year.
This is a great opportunity to support the PTA and save the hassle of shopping.
Amidst all the disruptions and current school closure due to Covid-19, we still need to plan for next year.
Thanks to all of those who read and raised money, we have raised more than $7,000!
