Warren Hills Elementary PTA

Membership:

• We are a little under the membership count from last year.  Please encourage anyone you know to join our PTA!  Membership is only $10!
• 5th grade teacher Mrs. Riffle won the membership pizza party for her class!  Congratulations!  They received the pizza this past Thursday!
• We reviewed and approved this year’s budget

Fundraising:

• Boosterthon/Fun Run is in full swing!  The pep rally was last Tuesday and the actual Fun Run is this coming Friday.  A sign up genius is going out to volunteer to help at the water station.  Please watch for this.  And, please encourage your children and any families you know to help raise money for this fundraiser.  It’s our largest fundraiser of the year and we have a goal of $20,000!  This fundraiser pays for all the school field trips throughout the year!
• Restaurant night-Chipotle didn’t make as much as it did last year, but with a 33% kick back to our school, we’ll continue to use and support them!
• Our next one is Oct. 9th from 5-8 p.m. at Culvers!  Please plan to attend and have dinner or get it to go.  10% of all sales goes to our school!
• Spirit wear–You’ll see winter and additional spirit wear for sale soon.  There will be a table available at parent/teacher conferences in October!

Upcoming events:

• Trunk or Treat is Sunday, October 27th from 2-4 p.m.
• There will be a sign up genius that will go out October 1st for people to volunteer to do a trunk.  Prizes will be awarded for 1st and 2nd place trunks! This event was huge last year so more details will come soon!
• The 5th grade teachers are doing fundraising to support the United Way.  They’ll have an auction table set up at our Trunk-or-Treat to support this 🙂
• Book fair will be set up again at parent/teacher conferences.  Sales from books earns us “scholastic dollars” that the school can spend.  This past year we earned $4000 in scholastic dollars and the school purchased STEM teaching materials with this money!
