Saratoga Stallions...

Running Fast and Running Free... 

Hello Fellow Stallions!! My name is Allyson Harasimowicz, and I am your PTA President for the 2009-2010 School Year.

The PTA has many exciting plans for Saratoga ES and our families as we celebrate our 20th Anniversary!!

Thanks for checking out our website. We are excited about it as it is new to Saratoga PTA this year. Let us know if there is anything you would like to see added to it or if you have any ideas for the school year.

Check out the activities on the left side and sign up to volunteer for the events that you would like to be a part of.

As part of Saratoga's 20th Anniversary Celebration, we held a t-shirt design contest. The art teachers worked with our students to come up with design ideas for this year's school t-shirts. The students voted and the winner was a very happy 4th grader!! The winner was announced on WSES - Saratoga's Morning Announcements and sales started on International Night. Only $10/shirt. We also have many other Spirit Wear items available. The winning design is shown on the left.
