Z to A Countdown


Z to A Countdown

A few years ago, the PKY Elementary School began a tradition of counting down the last 26 days of school by having fun dress-up days.  Each day corresponds to a different letter of the alphabet, from Z down to A.  This year the countdown will begin on Tuesday, May 1st. Here's the entire schedule:
