While all Burbank schools celebrated back to school week this past week, Luther Middle School PTSA took the spirit of the event one step further by holding a Beach Party on campus Friday afternoon.

The school community came together to welcome everyone and at the same time help to raise some much needed funds through food sales and raffle baskets.

There were great raffle items offered like tickets to Disneyland and Sea World and gift baskets and gift cards a plenty for the raffle winners

The weather cooperated with a near beach perfect 90 degrees. Students had a great time in the ‘Soak Zone’ and inflatables.  All that was missing were the waves.

Luther Middle School Principal Dr. Oscar Macias was thrilled with the event, “The PTSA did an amazing job organizing this event and I was happy and proud that so many members of the Luther Burbank Middle School community participated.

Today was a reflection of the strong spirit of the Yellow Jacket Nation that exists at this school.  There is a true partnership between the parents, teachers, support staff, and our learners.”

Let’s hope everyone used enough sun screen.
