We’re considering hosting a non-alcoholic Sip & Paint event at the middle school as a fundraiser, open to students and adults, and we’d love to see if there’s interest!
Participants would enjoy a guided painting activity while sipping non-alcoholic beverages and enjoying light snacks. No art experience needed — just come ready to relax, create, and have fun together!
Please reach out to Ms. Roberts if you are interested. jennifer.roberts@k12.wv.us Your feedback will help us decide whether to move forward with planning.
Thank you for supporting our school! 💙
