A Valentine's THANK YOU!

The PTA wishes to thank Rosa Bender and her committee for a wonderful week that culminated in the super fun Valentine's Friendship Dance. We saw some great moves, ate some great food and were impressed by the creativity of our children that surrounded us on the walls and in the LEGOs on stage. Thank you to all the families who came and supported this event and to all the volunteers who made this event possible.

A special thank you to:
Rosalba Mendez- for being Rosa's right hand woman, for chairing the LEGO contest, and for making and selling the yummy tostadas along with her wonderful sisters and beautiful mom. For asking her nephew Pete to put together a playlist for us and hooking it all up.

Ariella Roberts- for being our wonderful MC, and for all the LEGO prizes.

Anvi Kevany- Well, nothing ever happens without Anvi, she was instrumental once again, in making sure everything ran smoothly.

Kim Ragno- What an amazing woman she is. She cooked, thanks for the great pasta and mini cheesecakes, she donated a ton of nail polish and decals, and put smiles on many of our little girls' faces with her manicure skills.

Beate Pilgreen, Lisa McGuinnes, Holly Schuck and her mom -for helping with the decorations, both on Tuesday and on Friday.

Gina Antestenis- always there in a pinch and her manicurist skills are not too shabby either.

Pilar Buelna and her daughter Gabi (Mt.Washington alum)-for helping to paint nails and for taking tickets at the dance

A very special thank you to all of our terrific teachers- for taking time out of their busy schedules to be the judges for the LEGO contest.

And a very, very special thank you to our wonderful Principal, Mrs.Valentino - for coming out to do manicures with us, we should all take lessons, she is a pro; and for staying at school till 9:00pm to lock up. We were very happy that she was able to make the dance along with her top 2 guys- her husband and 14 month old baby boy.

Thanks again for all of your support, see you all at our next dance in May!
