The Holiday Shoppe is HERE!!

A long-standing Sargent tradition, the Holiday Shoppe is one of our most loved student events. Every child gets the chance to shop independently for the special people in their lives, giving them a rare and meaningful moment of ownership in gift-giving.
​
Last year, the amazing Audrey Posteraro brought this event completely in-house, moving away from costly third-party companies and instead sourcing items ourselves. This change made a huge difference. 

Every item in the shop is under $5, with most priced between $1 and $2. Just as importantly, it allows us to support students who may run out of funds or need help covering gifts for everyone they want to shop for.

Affordability and access for all are central to this event. We work hard to ensure every child can fully participate and experience the joy of giving.

How it works:
• Your child has already received a form home in their backpack. Please complete it together to list who they would like to shop for and plan a simple budget.
• You can send funds via Venmo to @SargentElementary-PTO. Any unused money will be returned, or you may choose to donate the remainder to the PTO to help support other students. Or you can send your child in with cash.
• During the week, your child will visit the Holiday Shoppe with their class. Our wonderful volunteers will be there to guide and support them while they shop.

The joy and pride the kids experience during this event truly cannot be overstated. If you have time to volunteer, we would love your help.  We promise it will leave you full of holiday spirit.
Thank you for helping us make this tradition special for every Sargent student 💛
