Scholastic Book Fair
All of the kids had a chance to visit our school book fair to buy books, posters and pens! Each class went during the school day and we had open hours after school. We had such a good time seeing the kids buy new books to read!
Thank you to all our volunteers for helping the spring book fair run smooth!
***Please send Stacie an email (president.arlingtonpta@gmail.com) if you are interested in running the book fair for the upcoming school year. We have an open position and would love to make this amazing event happen again next fall and spring!
5th Grade Fundraiser Success!
Thank you to each family who came to our McDonald's fundraiser on 182nd St. to support our 5th grade class! They only have a few weeks left at Arlington. The funds raised will pay for their 5th grade t-shirts, their own 5th grade yearbooks, graduation decorations, and a big celebration on the field the afternoon after the culmination ceremony (and more!). We appreciate you all!
One of the 5th grade and PTA Mom's Jenn went from running the school book fair over to McD's to deliver your order! What dedication!!
We sold a few hundred McDonald's warm choc chip cookies!!
