PTA Newsletter-May 2021

 PTA Donations: 

We were so excited to present a $12,000 check to Mrs. Hill for our school. Another $12k was invested in chrome book carts, chrome books & iPads at the start of the year; and in addition to this, we have given grants to our teachers three times this year totaling over $20k. We were able to replace the teacher's refrigerator upstairs, maintain our beautiful Bear Garden, help feed our science lab animals, and love our teachers and staff with meals throughout the year.



Learning Packets:
To make sure that the skills built over the last nine months remain sharp, the PTA, with guidance from our wonderful teachers, have updated our online Summer Learning Packet for each grade level. Participation is OPTIONAL. The packets are available at any time on our blog.

1. Choose the grade level that your child will be in next year.
2. Print it off.
3. Have your student complete the work over the summer.
4. Return the packets to your child's new teacher during the first week of school, no later than Friday, August 20.

Students who complete their Summer Learning Packet and return it to school by August 20 will be rewarded with a prize from the PTA.

School Supplies:
We need your help unloading pallets and distributing school supplies this summer. Please consider volunteering! 
Unloading Pallets: Tuesday, June 29 7am-8am
Distributing Supplies to Classrooms: Tuesday, July 27 7am-11am
