We're wrapping up a short, but fantastic week at Violet Elementary! We've appreciated seeing so many of you at parent-teacher conferences.

Important Reminder: Due to conferences, there will be no school on Monday.

Thank you for your continued support of our school and our students. We've had a successful read-a-thon thanks to your involvement. There are many ways to get involved at Violet. Check out our newsletter for upcoming events and opportunities to volunteer through the PTO or Watch D.O.G. program.

Last note.... we have a quick build up of water bottles and jackets in our lost and found- especially down by the gym. We will set all of these out on Tuesday for students to find their items. We will be throwing any unclaimed water bottles next Friday, so please remind them to look over the table when they return next week. They will be sitting out Monday during conferences too for parents to look over.

Enjoy your long weekend with your family!

To find more information about the PTO, check out their website. Keep up to date on upcoming meetings, fundraising, family nights etc.

we understand it is often difficult to give your time to support the PTO, but you are still interested in supporting with donations to support our incentives. Our Violet Elementary PTO is always accepting monetary donations that can be used for things such as feeding teachers on conference nights, student celebrations and events. Check out the Violet Elementary PTO Venmo.

Another way that you can support PTO is through these wishlist items.

We are currently looking for recess items, and beginning our Finish Strong Campaign collections, which gets the students pumped up to finish the 4th quarter of school with some great incentives.

You can access each of those links below.
