🍕💙 A huge THANK YOU to our amazing Slaughter PTO for providing Papa Murphy’s pizza, salad kits, and cookies for a first-day “take home” meal! Truly nothing better than ending the first day of school without having to worry about what’s for dinner.
Special thanks to Alex, owner of the Papa Murphy’s on Eldorado, for giving our PTO an amazing deal that makes it possible to pull this off each year. We are so grateful for your thoughtfulness and for taking care of our Wolfpack family!
