Did You Know the PTO:  Would like to celebrate Tracy Lumpkin and the Family Night Out committee for a successful event.

 

Thanks to all who particpated in and attended Family Night Out 2012.  The Science Fair was a huge success.  Thanks to Cheryl Hogle, Brad Shapiro and Jill Faris for their organization, coaching and dedication to making the Science Fair a great event for kids and families. 

 

The basket raffle was also very successful in raising just over $10,000 to support the learning and programs at Concord.
