Goals and Accomplishments:

• The Violet PTC raises over $27,000 each year to fund a variety of programs, including assemblies, field trip travel expenses, the year-end picnic, student and staff recognition programs, etc., to enhance the educational and social experiences of Violet students.

Latest News:

• We like to recognize students who exemplify the LifeLong Guidelines and Life Skills by making them our Life Skill Heroes. They have their picture displayed on our Life Skill Hero Board outside of our school office.
• We also like to recognize our Accelerated Reader (AR) readers. Students read books, take computer-generated quizzes and earn points. When our students reach the 5-point club, they have their picture taken and are on our AR board. We have a Classroom Battle of the Books two or three times a school year.
