Thank You PTA Members

PTA Membership is now closed for this year.  We had 395 members join and Kernan Trail PTA qualified for the Grandparent Gold Award through the Florida PTA for having 25 grandparents join PTA.  We thank you for all your support and look forward to having continued support during the next school year.

Outback Steakhouse - Business Partner of the Month

We are happy to highlight our business partner for the month of March as

Outback Steakhouse

at Queen's Harbor (near Atlantic and Hodges).

For a limited time, order off the Red, White and Bloomin' menu in the month of March and help them donate $1 to Operation Homefront.  Operation Homefront was formed in February 2002 to support the families of deployed service members immediately following 9/11.  Operation Homefront is headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, and currently provides services to troops and their families across the nation.

Menu items from the Red, White and Bloomin' March Menu include:

Bloomin' Onion, Outback Special, Baby Back Ribs, Alice Springs Chicken, Victoria's Filet, Royal Port Tilapia, Chargrilled Ribeye, and Carrot Cake.

It's a delicious way to help support Operation Homefront and to thank our business partner Outback Steakhouse for their involvement in the community.
