A bright week of appreciation

We’re excited to celebrate our amazing teachers and staff with a fun week of appreciation! Each day will include a small way for students to participate, along with a few special touches from the PTA.

• Monday: Bring a flower (or draw one) to create a class bouquet
• Tuesday: Bring your teacher's favorite snack
• Wednesday: Wear your teacher’s favorite color
• Thursday: Bring a gift card to your teacher’s favorite place
• Friday: Write a thank you note for your teacher

Student participation is optional but encouraged—additional details will be shared with families.

Volunteers Needed:
We’re looking for a few helping hands each morning (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday) to assist with collecting and organizing student items in front of the office. Your help makes a big difference in keeping things organized and running smoothly.

If you’re CLEARED and available to help, please sign up below!

Thank you for helping us make this week special for our teachers and staff!

Thursday morning we had an incredible assembly to support our educational environmental week.

We had the CA Department of Fish and Wildlife, Office of Spill Prevention and Response come onto campus and share with us their expert knowledge!

Thank you PTA for coordinating this assembly for our students!

The K9 dog KIMBO did a search activity and found a small object on the playground!

WOW!!! We are so impressed by all the talents shared on stage at Thursdays night's talent show! It was a packed house!

Everyone was so brave! We are proud of our Superstar students. Thank you PTA for putting on such a lovely talent show!

Do you LOVE to host a party? Keep reading... we need an Arlington parent to coordinate the food and decor for a few events this upcoming school year. We would love to have you join our PTA board as the hospitality chair. This role would put on a back-to-school staff breakfast and a Holiday staff lunch. Everything is purchased with the PTA funds, we just need your creative vision and special touch. You would pick the theme, the catering company and decorate. Does this sound like an event you would love to do at your child's school? We would love to have you!! Email Stacie at president.arlingtonpta@gmail.com or find her at school for a chat!

Speaking of throwing a party - we are also looking for a fab parent to fill the role of Teacher Appreciation Week (TAW) chair for the upcoming year. You will experience the wonderful event in a few weeks - and that is all set up by a dedicated volunteer that is on our PTA board. It could be you! You plan the daily themes and the treats for the teachers & staff (using our PTA budget of course).

Being on the PTA board is a special way to get even more involved at your child's school!

The PTA Board meets the first Thursdays of the month, after school in the cafeteria (your kids are welcome).
