Parents Night Out Event

Dear Families, We are so appreciative of the continual support given by our families to the Needham community. Unfortunately, due to a lack of ticket sales this year, we will not have the funds to host the Parents Night Out event as planned. We are grateful for those of you that purchased tickets. We will be contacting you directly in order to refund your money. If you have further questions please contact the office. We hope to see you all at Funlympics which is our next school Fundraiser. This event is hosted by PTO and is on May 10th. They are looking for parent volunteers to help organize and run this event. Thank you for your continued support of Needham Elementary! Sincerely, Needham Social Committee
