💚It's NEVER too late to pay your HSA Dues!
So much of the 4th grade Dues are used to pay for all the amazing end-of-year events we've mentioned above....including the yearbook! If you have yet to pay your dues, please take a moment to do so. If you can't recall if you've paid already, feel free to send a note to the HSA Treasurers and they will be more than happy to help you confirm.
