The Annual Ramos Elementary School Beautification Day will be held on Saturday, August 16, from 9 AM until 12 PM (noon). Projects will include weeding, mulching the playground, litter pickup, cleanup around the school and more. Join us for a day of fellowship as we work together to make Ramos look great for the students’ first day of the school year.

If you can help, please contact Dick McCreight, coordinator, using the form below.

Our form is closed, since the event has passed. Please watch for future opportunities to support Ramos Elementary!
