JANUARY 2020 NEWSLETTER
It’s time to start planning for the 30th Annual All Night Party! Every year KPPN hosts the ANP graduation night for the Seniors to celebrate one last time together (in a substance free envi-ronment). Parents work to TRANSFORM the school into a totally different place. The graduates come together for an entire night of fun, activities, food, and entertainment. Although this is for seniors, it is a “team” effort and we need parents from all grades to pay it forward to make it happen. More than 130 parent volunteers helped last year and we hope you will consider helping with this year’s party as well. We have many volunteer opportunities starting with the decorating leading up to the event, mul-tiple positions the night of the event, as well as fundraising and planning needs. Email us at [email protected] or [email protected] to get involved.

THE GREAT GREEN HALLOWEEN COSTUME SWAP
In early October, the KPPN partnered with the Fiske Library in Wrentham for a costume swap/sale. Instead of buying new cos-tumes we encouraged the community to GO Green by swapping or buying a gently used costume, thereby saving money, resources, packaging etc. The swap was a success! Thank you to all who volunteered their time and donated costumes.
