The Caldwell County Parent Teacher Organization held its Spring Carnival in the Butler Gym on Saturday.
This is the return of the activity that has been on hold due to Covid for a few years. The Carnival provided children a chance to come together and enjoy bouncy houses, play games, win prizes, get face paintings, and enjoy refreshments. The plan was to hold it on the Butler grounds but due to rain, it was moved inside. According to parent Kayla Kukahiko this is the big fundraiser for the group.

Faughn encourages everyone that has students in those schools to volunteer and help assist with programs for the students. They currently meet on the first Thursday of the month at 5:00 pm at the Primary School. There are no dues to be a part of the organization and they are in need of more members. If you are interested in becoming involved contact Nichelle Faughn or either of the schools.
