Description

Penny Road Elementary is a public school in Cary, North Carolina. We welcome families from Cary, Apex, Holly Springs and Raleigh. In addition to nearly 600 terrific students, we have a dedicated staff who believe strongly in our school’s vision to foster a culture that is inclusive, engaging, and relevant for all students to continuously improve towards their full potential while building relationships with students, staff, parents, and the community.

Our PTA works diligently to fundraise throughout the school year so that we may continue to provide many wonderful opportunities to our students and staff. Thanks to the generosity of our families and local community, funds raised allow us to:

● Purchase new technology equipment, as well as, digital learning platforms to support curriculum ● Upgrade and repair existing technology and school equipment
● Enhance our learning environments by purchasing critical classroom supplies like paper
● Maintain and improve our school’s 30 year old facilities

● Support essential programming and educational experiences such as: ○ K-5 literacy programs

○ Field trips and family engagement opportunities ○ Health and Wellness activities
○ Cultural Arts programs and much more!

Break out your bell bottoms and get ready to rock your tie dye shirts, we are heading back to the 70’s and it’s going to be totally groovy! “Peace, Love & Penny Spring Carnival 2023” will offer carnival games and attractions, concessions, a DJ, and more. Our event is 100% volunteer run. To help us reach our fundraising goal, we are seeking donations from businesses across the state and country for things like gift cards, tickets or passes for games and experiences, as well as hotel stays. Donations will be used in our silent auction, as well as, our raffle baskets. We are also seeking donations to help offset some of the costs associated with our event. All donations are 100% tax deductible, and we greatly appreciate the support.
