Fall Festival Volunteers & Donations Needed

Our Fall Festival/Trunk-or-Treat is Friday, October 23, and we need Sandburg families to help make it a success.

We're looking for volunteers to help with trunks, games and activities, as well as donations of candy and treats for the event. 

Whether you can volunteer your time or contribute a bag of candy, we'd love your support!

Sign up to help HERE.

View the allergy friendly donation list here. 

Help Stock the Teachers' Cart

Let’s show our Sandburg teachers and staff some appreciation!

Our teachers and staff love the Teachers' Cart, and we need your help keeping it stocked. With parent-teacher conferences coming up, it's a great time to show our appreciation by providing individually packaged snacks and drinks for the staff lounge.

Please drop off all donations at the front office by morning drop-off on Thursday, October 8. A PTO parent volunteer will organize and restock the cart.

Can't shop but still want to contribute? 

You can also make a monetary donation to the Teachers' Cart Fund to help us purchase any remaining items.

Sign up HERE.

Movie Night Is Back On!

Our first-ever Sandburg Family Movie Night has been rescheduled. Join us on Saturday, October 10 at 6:45 PM for the live-action How to Train Your Dragon.

Tickets purchased for the original date will be honored. You can still buy tickets via the QR code below or this link.

We’re looking forward to finally enjoying a movie under the stars together.
