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.”
It was a day of wagging tails and belly rubs at Leadership Burbank’s “A Cause for Paws” fundraising event this past Saturday at Johnny Carson Park. Money raised went to help complete their class project of updating the Burbank Animal Shelter facility to allow the animals more exercise space.
The Burbank Community Garden and the Sustainable Burbank Commission held their “Go Green Burbank Earth Day Celebration” this past Saturday, April 13th with kids activities, presentations, and more.
