GLES PTA Weekly Update
Monday, June 1st - Sunday, June 7th 2026
Wednesday June 10th 6:30pm on the Playground
Our last PTA meeting of the year is at the Playground at 6:30 on Wednesday, June 10th
Bring the kids and join us for pizza, ice cream and fence fish painting! (There is a suggested sliding-scale donation to cover the materials for the fish, but all the kids are welcome to paint a fish). If you have an unpainted fence fish kit swimming around your house, you can also bring it and paint with us!
We do have a few important things we need to vote on, so please come so we can make sure we can actually operate our PTA next year!
Give them to classroom teachers this week!
You've worked hard all month riding and rolling, and now it's time to turn in your bike bingo cards for a chance to win some prizes. Turn in bingo cards to classroom teachers between Monday and Friday this week, June 1-5.
Friday, June 12th
We will especially need help from people who have a truck or a van who can help schlep games and equipment to the park in the morning, and back to the school in the afternoon.
Also, keep an eye on your teachers’ emails for requests to help walk kids down to the park!

The Eckstein PTSA wants you!
They are so excited to welcome our 5th grade families to Eckstein Middle School this fall! They are looking for new volunteers to fill board positions for the 2026-2027 school year. No experience is needed and volunteers will be mentored by experienced incumbents and departing board members. Volunteer commitment varies by position but is very manageable and flexible.
If you are interested in learning more, please fill out their survey and a member of their nominating committee will contact you.
If you have any questions, please contact president@ecksteineaglesptsa.org.
