Patton PTA Pulse Newsletter

• Thank you to ALL the parent volunteers who planned and helped run the Halloween parties! We truly appreciate you! All the students looked like they had the best time celebrating with their classmates and we couldn’t have done it without each one of you!

We would LOVE to shout out your name in our next newsletter! Can’t wait for YOU to get involved!

Looking for a way to showcase your child’s talents and artistic expression? Encourage your child to submit entries for this year’s national PTA Reflections program, with the theme: Accepting Imperfection.

Students can submit their completed works of art in one (or more) of the art categories: dance choreography, film production, literature, music composition, photography and visual arts. Please read through these specific PTA reflections rules for each category submission.

All projects must be submitted to Patton’s main office by the end of school day on November 20th. Please fill out this student entry form to accompany each project. Feel free to reach out to Tina Shah (tinashah1@gmail.com) with any questions!

Everyone’s pictures should have come home with students last week. For those who haven’t purchased photos yet, you should have a proof with a code for ordering information. If you missed picture day or aren’t happy with your photos, retakes will be on Tuesday, November 12th. Have other questions? Contact Renee Klues at reneeklues@gmail.com.

• Picking up or dropping off your kiddos? Spend a half an hour helping out our wonderful and fun traffic team one shift or more each week! Can’t commit?! Feel free to sign up to sub. Have questions?
• Fill out the Google Form and Volunteer Now!
  
• As a reminder: Kiddos need to be seated on the right side(curbside) or have access to get in and out curbside if you are utilizing the car line. Our volunteers can not for safety reasons for both the student and volunteer load or unload a student from the left side of the car.
  

• You may see our wonderful traffic team out setting up before 8:50 am. They aren’t quite ready to receive our wonderful students. Please arrive after 8:50 am. Please note there is no supervision until 8:50 am. Please make sure kids aren’t arriving before then as our traffic volunteers can not supervise.

Just a reminder there is no supervision until 8:50am so please do not drop your child off before then. The traffic team is not responsible for supervising your child.
