Aquila Carnival
Carnival/Festival for Aquila Elementary Parent Teacher OrganizationMay 12, 2023 from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM
Our annual Aquila Carnival will be held on Friday, May 12, 2023 in our school gymnasium. Students are able to play carnival games, eat treats, see their teachers in a casual setting, and enjoy one another as the school year comes to a close.
Local and national businesses donate items for inclusion as raffle items and for placement in silent auction gift baskets; these gift baskets are stuffed with swag, gift cards, treats, toys, and more.
The mission of Aquila Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is to enhance the education experience of all Aquila students, families, and staff through fundraising and volunteer opportunities. Funds raised from the Carnival directly benefit the students of Aquila by providing free field trips and transportation, classroom supplies, recess equipment, art materials, and more. This financial support is greatly needed by many of our students, given the economic disadvantages faced by many of our families. We are a Title I school and a school with a significant number of families who are new to the United States; the hardships faced by these families leave little room to pay for extracurricular opportunities. Aquila PTO is proud to help bridge that gap with our fundraising efforts every year. Our mission statement reflects this commitment.
