Restaurant Nights
Throughout the school year, we coordinate fundraisers with local restaurants. When you dine at the restaurant on those days, some of the proceeds are donated to the Bryant-Pattengill PTO.
Book Fairs
Each school has a book fair where students can peruse and purchase their favorite books. Book Fairs are typically held in February/March. The Scholastic Book Fair connects students and families with great books while raising funds and earning books for the Bryant-Pattengill libraries.
