ARES students have a history at the hop

Akin Road Elementary held its 15th annual Sock Hop Feb. 3. The event is not a fundraiser, ARES Parent Teacher Partnership president Mary Treakle said. There is a silent auction and funds from that part of the event go to the PTP – this year’s proceeds are helping to bring technology into the classrooms – but fundraising isn’t the point of the event. Fun is.
