Happy Monday! Its hard to believe, but in just one week we’ll be done with the first quarter…wow! This week we’ll continue with parent-teacher conferences, as a result we will be on a minimum day schedule with students being released at 1:15 pm. I hope your conferences have been informative and helpful. As always, if you have additional questions please make sure to ask your teacher to arrange an appointment for some additional time or if you’d like to speak to me feel free to stop by to arrange an appointment.
PTA FALL FESTIVAL
I want to encourage all of you to mark your calendars for our upcoming PTA sponsored Fall Festival on October 18th. There will be fun, food, games, live entertainment and prizes, as well as opportunity drawings and silent auctions. The proceeds will be used to provide educational assemblies, field trips, and playground equipment for our children
here at school. However, we need your help to make this event successful. Teachers
and their classrooms are contributing by creating a theme basket for the silent
auction. Here is a list of the classroom baskets:
TK – Sports (Geared for dads)
Kindergarten – Toys for Girls & Toys for Boys
1st Grade – Legos
2nd Grade – Baking/Cooking
3rd Grade – Movie Night
4th Grade – Spa (Geared for moms)
5th Grade – Holiday
6th Grade – Beverages
PTA Baskets – Reading, Gift Cards, a Night Out
Please feel free to contribute an item that is not related to your classroom theme. Those items can be used in another basket or for the opportunity drawing. Please send donated items to your child’s classroom by Friday, October 11, 2013. This will give us time to put the baskets together.
We hope to have enough middle and high school volunteers to
work the game booths, but we need volunteers to help work the food, prize and
ticket booths during the festival. We hope to have enough volunteers that each
will only need to commit to one hour. If you are available to help please let us know. If you have questions, please email dbmendoza1027@yahoo.com or
drop a note in the PTA mailbox located in the main office.
