NO SCHOOL - Thanksgiving
Unbelievable – It’s November already!
So much has happened and so much is ahead.
Thank you to all the PTA supporters out there. We are doing
a great job providing fun student socials, tokens of
appreciation to our staff, curriculum support, office help and
more. None of this could happen without the dedicated group
of parents we are. But the job is still not done. There are
many months of school left and much to do. Please read the
volunteer box on the back for more information.
As you will see below we are $1,995 under budget for our fall
fundraiser. It would be great if we could still make our
budget so PTA programs don’t need to be cut --If 50 parents donate $39.90 or 100 families donate $19.95 we
would make it. Please consider sending in a donation, to the
main office, of any amount by November 12th. Thank you ;)
Sure hope to see many of you at the Math and English
Presentation next Tuesday!
