PFO Newsletter

Hi Families,

I hope everyone had a wonderful Spring Break. While the end of the school year is creeping up on us, the PFO activities are in full swing. Please take a look at the information below on PFO Board Nominations, Teacher Appreciation Week, Parent’s Night Out Happy Hour and Dewey Family Night! Lots of fun for everyone!

Claire Cervantes-Thompson
PFO President

Nominations are still being accepted until the end of tomorrow! (April 25th). Voting will be from 4/28-5/2.

Use the link below to place your nomination. If you are interested in any position, would like nominate yourself, or if you know of someone who you think would be a great addition to the team, nominate them!

You don’t need to have a nomination for every position to submit a nomination form.

It takes a village and your help with nominations and voting is crucial to keep the PFO going and strong!

There will be family friendly raffle prizes available and a silent auction for items like 'teacher for a day' and some coveted parking spots.

- Auction will be in MP room (each family gets 1 ticket for attending)

- Student art will be displayed

- Interactive stations (art/PE/music) where families can earn additional raffle tickets!

Place your order today!

Orders will be delivered to your student's class the last week of the month.

Earn money with each latté, tank of gas, or grocery run. Raise Right helps everyday purchases give back to your student’s classroom during the school year, and then directly to your student during the summer.

Raise Right is a great way to fundraise all year long. This fundraiser offers gift cards for most retailers and pays the PFO a percentage of the gift cards purchased. Cards can be mailed home OR e-cards are available instantly. Use for everyday necessities or as gifts!
