Winter Festival and Open House

Altadena, CA -- Charles W. Eliot Middle School PTA invites the community to join students and their families on Wednesday, Dec. 12, 2012 for an evening of music, art, and pre-holiday cheer.

Our LEARNS after school program will kick off the festivities with a Showcase for parents at 4:10 pm. At 5:30 pm we’ll open our doors to the entire community. Get a bite to eat from the food truck in the Quad, and some fresh-pressed cider to wash it down. Visit the Holiday Book Fair in the Parent Resource Room – great deals on gifts for the readers in your life! Check out student art work, visit the Healthy Start table, learn about parent groups and volunteer opportunities. Then join us in the auditorium at 7 pm for the winter concert featuring our Concert & Jazz Bands, Drum Line, Orchestra, and Spirit Team.

This event is open to the community. No ticket purchase or RSVP is required. Features of the festival include:

• Cold & warm beverages


• Student art exhibit


• PTA bake sale and crafts from local artisans


• Information for parents and community members


• Raffle (spa package, Trader Joe goody-bag, and more)


• Holiday Book Fair in the Parent Resource Room

Eliot Middle School’s PTA is excited about what our students are learning and the way our school community is coming together to support them. We welcome ideas for partnering with local businesses, individuals, and organizations for the benefit of our kids and the Altadena community, and hope you’ll join us on this festive occasion.
