 T.H.A.N.K.S. - To Honor And Notice Kindness and Service. This award began in 2009 by the Parent Teacher Association. It is given out monthly to individuals who go above and beyond the call of duty with their exemplary volunteerism. Do you know someone who deserves a “T.H.A.N.K.S.”? If the answer is yes and you'd like to nominate a parent, teacher or staff member for the T.H.A.N.K.S award, please attend one of our upcoming meetings to do so. The PTA board will select the award recipient(s) from the pool of nominees. The award recipient(s) will be announced at the following meeting. In addition, they are featured in the Decatur Communique each month.

 With the success of past fundraisers (Jog-A-Thon and the Spring Fundraiser), the PTA has been able to fund some outstanding projects for the school and our children. We'd like to thank the Decatur community for their support. Together, we made a difference!
