Save those Box Tops!! Box Tops is an easy way to earn money for our school! Just by purchasing Box Tops products, clipping the coupons and sending them into school, we earn cash that can be used to buy anything we need.

MOD PIZZA • Rolling Hills 3A Peninsula Center Rolling Hills Estates, CA 90274 (310) 265-0100 THANK YOU!....to all the generous parents of Silver Spur Elementary who participated in the Skechers Run last October. The final fundraising numbers are in and PEF is proud to announce it will receive a check amounting to $257,052, which is $17K more than last year. Thanks to your generous donations, PEF exceeded their goal and raised the highest amount of all the past 10 years! Thank you again to everyone who donated! As parents in the Palos Verdes Unified School District, we are facing an important moment for our students and our community. On March 3rd, all cities in Palos Verdes will have the opportunity to vote YES to updating every school in the district - schools that attract young families and make our community a great place to live in, despite the fact that the average school building is 60 years old.
Because our district receives a below-average portion of state funding, our facilities are already behind those in neighboring districts - districts where communities pass bonds. This bond will keep funds 100% local, with a local independent commission ensuring the funds are spent to meet earthquake standards, update fire security systems, and increase access to safe drinking water, among other improvements. Here, at Silver Spur, obtaining air conditioning in the MPR and upgraded playground will be the start. We urge all Silver Spur parents to vote YES on Measure PV. Our young children will benefit for years if we show up for them on March 3rd.
IMPORTANT DATES: * February 18 - Voter Registration Closes * March 3 - Election Day |
