Thank you LIsa Stott, Janet Wein, Jessica LaCour, Tish Anderson and Zisha Yamano for operating Pacific's annual Scholastic Book Fair. We had class visits where kids got to discover new titles and reacquaint themselves with favorite authors. Thank you to all the families that supported the PTA through this fundraiser.

Thank you to all the families that dealt with the rain, prepared and contributed dishes to Pacific Cares' International Food Day. France, India, Taiwan, Armenia and Mexico were all represented. Our Panthers had a wonderful time tasting delicious food from around the world!
