Every December, University Elementary transforms into a winter wonderland for its beloved Candy Cane Lane event. Families stroll through the Gym lined with twinkling lights, festive decorations, and the irresistible scent of peppermint in the air. It’s more than just a holiday celebration—it’s a chance for our community to come together and make a difference.

Behind the cheerful candy canes and cozy cocoa stands is a powerful purpose: supporting our PTO and the students we serve. Every dollar raised during Candy Cane Lane goes directly back into enriching the lives of our kids. With the support of generous community partners like you, we are able to:

Fund student field trips and hands-on learning opportunities that spark curiosity and bring lessons to life.
Provide classroom resources and supplies for teachers, ensuring every child has what they need to succeed.
Host school-wide events that build connection and school spirit, creating memories that last a lifetime.
Support staff appreciation initiatives, because happy teachers make happy learners.
Create enrichment programs that inspire and engage students beyond the classroom.

When you shop, donate, or volunteer at Candy Cane Lane, you’re not just spreading holiday cheer—you’re investing in the future of our children. Thank you for being part of this sweet tradition and for helping us make University Elementary a place where every student can thrive.
