Holiday Market Update

This December, the PTO is excited to introduce a Holiday Market in place of our traditional school store! We’ve received a few questions and wanted to share a quick overview of what families can expect.

We will be partnering with Penguin Patch, a company that provides a wide variety of kid-friendly gift items. Students will have the opportunity to browse and choose gifts for siblings, cousins, and friends (think school-store–style items like fidgets, squishes, slime, and more). There will also be thoughtful options for adults—such as mugs, necklaces, mini trophies, small tool sets, and other holiday surprises. After selecting their gifts, students can help wrap and label them, adding a special personal touch.

Our hope is that this experience encourages students to spread holiday cheer, enjoy a fun shopping opportunity, and support the school through this fundraiser.

Please note that there are no preview days for this event. All items arrive pre-priced, ranging from $0.50 to $13.00. Once the market is set up on Tuesday, I will share photos or a short video on SSES peeps on Facebook so families can get a sneak peek.

We’re looking forward to a wonderful event and appreciate your support!
