This weekend is the annual Brookside Art Annual and Border Star Montessori PTA’s spring fundraiser.

The Art Fair Parking fundraiser raises approximately 20% of our annual revenues that allows the PTA to provide things like classroom stipends and field trips.  While raising money is great, we want to make sure everyone knows the overall schedule and procedures we’re using to ensure our students remain safe and secure at all times.

Parent volunteers will be on hand to monitor the building entrance/exits Thursday and Friday.
