We Need Your Donations for Fall Festival Gift Baskets!

The PTA Fall Festival fundraiser is October 20, 2023! Traditionally, every grade makes a themed basket to raffle off at the festival. These gift baskets raise on average $700- $1,000 for Pinchbeck. Donations for the gift baskets can be sent into school with your child or dropped off in  the tote outside the Pinchbeck front office marked "Fall Festival Gift Baskets". Please label your donation with your child’s grade level.


All donations should be at Pinchbeck by 2:30pm Wednesday, October 11th.

To sign up for a donation, go to https://pinchbeckpta.membershiptoolkit.com/roomparents
