Last chance: Register now for Let’s Glow Arroyo! This not-to-be-missed event is this Friday, Feb. 3, from 7-9 p.m. in Mustang Hall. There will be snacks, glow games, a selfie station, dancing, and more for Arroyo students and an adult guest. Register to attend via the link above. Make sure to dust off your neon or white clothes, so you’ll glow under the lights. See you there! And big thanks to all of you and your contributions throughout the year for making the Glow Party possible. Your generous donations to SCEF provide our PTA the opportunity to put on memorable events like this for our community.

The Central/Arroyo Library needs parent volunteers to help supervise lunchtime activities on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:55 a.m.-12:45 p.m. No library experience needed! We are looking for one or two volunteers for each slot. You can sign up for as few or as many shifts as you like here.

We could also use library shelving help. Timing is flexible, and training is provided! Email our librarian, Ms. Hultgren ([email protected]), for more information.

There’s no fee to attend, but we need an accurate count as soon as possible so we can plan for all the fun activities and refreshments. Plus, registering guarantees your student a swag bag upon arrival! Register here and mark your calendar for the Glow Party Friday, Feb. 3rd from 7-9 p.m. in Mustang Hall!

We’re excited to bring Lunar New Year activities to Arroyo this year. On Monday, Jan. 23, students will have the opportunity to learn about the holiday at school through books and videos, attend a lion dance assembly, and receive a red envelope in honor of the Year of the Rabbit! If you’re interested in volunteering or donating items like red envelopes or chocolate coins (that will go in the envelopes), please sign up here. Thank you!
