Reebok BOKs Coming to Sprague

Please join us as we bring Reebok BOKs to Sprague. What is Reebok BOKs? It's a before-school physical activity program for elementary schools that sparks a child's mind and body for better learning during the day. The goal is to kick off a Tuesday/Thursday program from 7:30 a.m. to 8:15 a.m. beginning in October. Each session will run for approximately 12 weeks. 

We need parents to get trained at Reebok Corporate Headquarters and to help run the sessions. There are 2 upcoming sessions in Canton - Tuesday, September 17th from 10-2 or Wednesday, September 18th from 4-8. To register for a free training session please go to the link below. If you are interested in helping facilitate this program please email Anne Marvan as spragueboks@gmail.com. Thank you!

Success! Parents Night Out

It was wonderful to see so many people at The Cottage on Tuesday night -- thank you all for making Back to School and our first social gathering a success! In return for our business, The Cottage donated a $100 gift card to be raffled off at the cookie walk in December. Stay tuned for the next parents night out -- hopefully sometime later in the fall.

Show Your Sprague Spirit!

Did you know you can order Sprague gear and have it delivered to your door?

You can through the on-line Sprague Spirit Store! Even better, for every $12 spent through the website a total of $2 is donated back to the Sprague PTO.

The store can be accessed through the Sprague website by choosing "PTO Programs and Events", and then "Ways and Means." Alternatively, you can click on the Sprague t-shirt below, which will take you directly to the store.

We understand the selection is limited. Please let us know if you would like us to add an item to the on-line store. We can't promise all wishes will be fulfilled but we're looking for good items to include.

Web Address of Sprague eDirectory Changed from Last Year

Please update your bookmarked address to the Sprague eDirectory. Easy access to the online directory can always be found on the PTO website, http://www.spragueschool.org/ by clicking on the Online Directory Box.
