The last weeks of school are upon us! As we gear up for the end of another year, we are excited for the coming PTO events including Turn Off the TV Week, Inspiration Day, Field Day and the
final Scholastic Book Fair. The last Movie Night of the school year featuring Puss in Boots 2 was a fun evening for all who attended.
Do you like free donuts and coffee? Yes! Please volunteer your time to our Market Day host month! Our first host month falls on April 21. We need your help from approximately 7:45am until 11:30am. Please contact Irena Braun if you can assist at [email protected] The morning goes by fast when you are volunteering for a good cause with a group of
really good people...with free donuts and coffee....
Inspiration Day is scheduled for May 24, and the plans are well under way for students in all grades K-8 to particpate. We still need your help! If you can assist with
volunteering please review the attached flyers at the end of the newsletter.
Turn off the TV week begins this month! The PTO is sponsoring BINGO & GAME NIGHT May 3 as part of the activities to keep your TV off, and the fun on!
May is quickly approaching and it will soon be time for PTO elections. Please consider getting involved in the PTO. The positions of the PTO Board consist of
President, Vice President, Ways and Means, Treasurer, and Secretary. We could use two to three individuals for Ways and Means and two individuals for Vice President. If you interested, but would like more information, please see the
