FPGB’s Copa Mundial (World Cup) will be a school-wide soccer tournament in which students represent and compete for a different country from around the world. We will celebrate cultural diversity with an opening ceremony, games, food, and music. Copa Mundial will be the PTA’s largest fundraiser of the year but, more importantly, it will be an opportunity to bring together ALL of our families to celebrate our children, our teachers, and our diverse community.

For questions about online purchases, please can email fpgpta@gmail.com.
