Minutes from November 13 Meeting

Parent Volunteers

• Sindy has been able to fulfill the requests she has received.
• PTO will be matching Red Ribbon funds for landscaping around the “new” addition ($141.49)
• We are looking for a few more volunteers to help with nursery during the K-4 grade program. If you are available please contact Pam.
• E-mail teachers about volunteering help. Maybe get nursing home people or shut-ins to help with projects they can complete at home. Perhaps have volunteers help the younger kids in the lunch line. Mr. Kerr will add something in the newsletter.

Fundraisers

• The t-shirt fundraiser has been completed. This went over very well.
• We still have few shirts available. Please contact the Elementary office for sizes available.
• The board and staff are very thankful for the t-shirts they received.

Future Fundraisers

• Reach for the Stars will be coming in the spring.
• Elementary Yearbook. – Greta is still working out details for “best use” of our funding. Looking at the TAG kids and the teachers completing pages – this way everyone will have “ownership” in the yearbook. Greta found the Lifetouch version very limited in what we can do. Greta will contact Demco for cost and will email members for their opinions regarding the “online” version.

Principal Report

Tressa's house on December 6th at 1 p.m. for special holiday project. We will need various candy bars. MINI holiday candy bars work the best. The 12 packs of pop can be dropped off at Tressa’s house along with the candy bars. Please contact Peggi 439-2821 or 470-1229 if you are interested in donating candy bars. The 12 packs of pop have been taken care of.

There will be no PTO meeting in December. The next PTO meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, January 8th. This is a change from the date in the school calendar.
