What is Trunk-or-Treat? It is a fun, family-friendly spin on the classic Halloween Trick-or-Treat tradition and offers a safe space for our Somerset students to celebrate Halloween with their school community!
The idea is simple: Trunk Hosts park their cars in the Somerset parking lot and display their decorated trunks. Trick-or-Treaters arrive and walk from vehicle to vehicle, collecting candy the way they would during a normal trick-or-treating outing.
Halloween costumes are optional, children are also welcome to wear their favorite outfit, party clothing, or just something comfortable. Please note, the event will happen rain or shine so please plan accordingly.
Somerset PTSA’s 2024 Fall Fundraising Drive Ends November 3rd
We have officially kicked off the Somerset PTSA's 2024 Fall Fundraising Drive at Curriculum Night! Many of you may have seen our Fall Fundraising letter during Curriculum Night or in your child’s Friday folder. This year, the PTSA needs to raise $278,785! On average, we spend $395 per student to support a wide range of programs and activities. This significant funding requirement is due to a shortfall between government funding and the actual cost of maintaining and enhancing our educational programs.
Your donations are essential to bridging this gap! The funds we raise support every aspect of your child’s school experience at Somerset, from drop-off to pick-up and everything in between. Your generous support ensures that Somerset remains one of the best elementary schools in the region! For more details on how the funds will be used and to make your donation to help us meet our Fall Fundraising goal of $180,000, please click here to visit our donation page.
Thank you for your continued support and dedication to our school community. Together, we can achieve great things for our children by bridging the gap between parents, teachers, and students!
