We had such a great time last week! These flyers were passed out to all the kids as they left the school the Friday before Teacher Appreciation Week. We encouraged all the kids to dress up to support our teachers & so they could join in on the fun. We saw many of the children bringing flowers, homemade cards, and gifts to their teachers. It made us so happy to see our teachers being loved on! We sent this to all of the staff members a couple weeks before so they would know what was coming. :) Day 1 - Kinder parents donated all kinds of snacks to start the week off. Our Treasurer, Alaina, brought all kinds of fun balloon bouqets and decorated the parking lot and teacher's lounge. It looked so festive! Day 2 - 1st grade parents & the PTO provided drinks and cups for all the staff members! Our Teacher Appreciation Coordinator, Michelle, personalized all the cups with their last names. Day 3 - Our 2nd grade parents provided popcorn at RedBox codes for our teachers! It was a hit! Day 4 - We just had a few 3rd grade parents sign up to help with this one, but luckily our PTO got it done! We have a great group! Day 5 - 4th & 5th grade parents donated a lot of money so we could get fun gift cards for all of the staff members. Snacks and candy were also donated. Thank you to all the parents & for their hard work last week. We couldn't have done it without y'all! We know that our teacher's felt appreciated & that was the goal.

Last month, we had a Spirit Night at the delicious Cowboy Chicken and earned $180 for our PTO and our school! This money goes to help support the teachers and staff, and also our kids. This is why we do this, so thank you!
Well, it wasn't a smashing success, but we are still so thankful for great local places that support our PTO and our school. Kung Fu Tea allowed us to do a fundraiser there when many places aren't. We raised $15 but that's more than we started with! So thank you to them, and to Karen & Reynisha for organizing these fundraisers!
Our PTO board (and our kids!) celebrated World Kindness Day on November 13th by joining HSA & wearing BLUE!
When we heard about the Meet the Teacher event, we had to get involved. Our PTO made this balloon arch and stood outside to wave to all the faces we miss so much!!
We are ready to announce the winners of our membership contest for PTO. 5E is our big winner with NINE PTO members. Bananas! Ms. Deveraux and Mrs. Boone will each receive a $25 gift card. 5D & KB are our 2nd & 3rd place winners - both classes have FIVE PTO members! Ms. Turner & Mrs. Evans will each receive a $15 gift card. Congrats, ladies! Thank you to everyone who has joined the PTO so far. If you've been on the fence, it's not too late! Your $5 membership dues will go to creating fun & happiness for our kids and their teachers. Once you've joined, our president will send an email once in awhile of things coming up, and if our school is able to do any activities later on in the year, you can decide if you want to participate. No obligations, whatsoever. This month we hosted a special appreciation event for our PTO members. We had dinner and a magic show & it was a great time.
Our PTO has grown so much the last five years. We are thankful for all of you who work so hard alongside us to help make every event & fundraising opportunity a success. Thank you to everyone who shopped at Five Below and supported our PTO! We hope you got some great holiday goodies for yourselves and your family members & friends!
We raised over $250 & we owe it all to you! Thank you to everyone who turned in their Box Tops last week!! We have some winners to announce...
1st place goes to 5C, Ms. Turner with 462. WOW!!! They win a class party sponsored by the PTO! 2nd place goes to 1D, Mr. Bramlett with 211! They get an extra recess and some sweet treats. Great job, guys! And to inspire you, we would like to award the 3rd place winner as well. Congrats to 3A, Ms. Graeber!! Their total was 168! The PTO will be bringing something sweet to the kids in her class the next couple of weeks. We would really love to meet our goal of $1,000 so we need everyone on board. Please get your app downloaded and keep clipping those Box Tops. Get your kids involved & be sure to ask your friends and family to help. We can do it!! Thanks to our Box Top Coordinator, Michelle V. for keeping us all on track! UPDATE: Check out the pictures to see how the rewards went for these Box Top Heroes! |
