If so, then we would encourage you to do so by the end of the month!Each Amazon account registered with Smile donated a portion back to our schools - SUPER easy way to support our schools while doing your regular shopping.

Speaking of regular shopping, is your Ralphs card registered? Last quarter, we received $2739.43 from Kroger! And did you know that you can ask extended families to register? Just choose "La Canada High School PTSA 7-12" as your community donor. Thank you for your continued support!
