Thank You

FTC would like to thank all the district families who sent in donations, came to events, participated in fundraisers and volunteered this school year. Together we accomplished some great things – like getting the Albright scoreboard and the Swartz stage curtains, funding field trips and parties and providing holiday meals for those in need. We hope you have a wonderful summer – and we’ll see you in August!
