🐯 Ti-GRRR Community Highlights

We Can’t Wait to See You!

We’re looking forward to welcoming our families to Open House this Thursday, September 24! Open House is a wonderful opportunity to visit classrooms, connect with our staff, and get a glimpse into the learning and experiences that make Swallow Union such a special place. Please see the flyer below for grade-level times and additional details. 

Color, Community & FUN!

Another favorite Swallow Union tradition is right around the corner: the PTO Color Fun Run! This event is always an exciting way to launch the school year, bringing our community together for an evening of family, friends, laughter, and plenty of COLOR! Attendance is always incredibly high, and it has become a family-favorite event that our students look forward to each year.

To make an event this big a success, we need our community’s help! There are still many volunteer spots available, and every helping hand makes a difference. Whether you can give a little time or a lot, please consider volunteering and helping our PTO make this another memorable evening for our students and families. Dunk a Dad- they need some dad volunteers for their dunk tank at Color Run! It’s only 15 min in the tank. 

👉 Sign up to volunteer here:

Thank you to our PTO and all of the volunteers who make events like this possible. We’re looking forward to another fantastic Color Fun Run!
