PTA Weekly Update
September 16, 2024
Good morning Huskie families!
Our annual membership drive is underway. Thank you to those who have already signed up! The first 200 members to join the PTA will receive a calendar magnet, so you don't miss any school or PTA activities this year. Please consider supporting our efforts by joining the PTA.
We are holding our first PTA member meeting this Thursday, August 28 at 9:30 a.m. Parents and members are invited to attend in person at the school or virtually via Google Meet. Details follow.
Additionally, we are seeking volunteers to be room parents for this school year. This is a great way to get involved with your child's class, work directly with teachers, and act as a point of communication with the PTA. Fill out this form to apply!
We also have a few FUNdraisers to kick off the year. Check out the information below to:
- Purchase Mums from We Grow Dreams Greenhouse - deadline for ordering is Friday, August 29
- Knock the SOCKS off Spirit Days with Spring Brook Socks
- Stock up on New Spirit Wear for yourself or your students
Don't forget to check out our website - it's a one-stop-shop for all things Spring Brook. Have a good week.
The Spring Brook PTA is a partnership between parents and educators to enhance learning and enrich student lives. We are proud to have a supportive school community with more than 76% of our teachers and families joining the PTA last year. We'd love to beat that number with even greater participation this year.
Your involvement can be as much or little as you wish, but your membership alone goes a long way toward our ability to provide opportunities for our Spring Brook Community throughout the year.
Click here to join today. The first 200 members to join this year will receive a calendar magnet featuring all of this year's important school dates. Classrooms will also compete for incentives through the end of our membership campaign.
For additional information on what we do, and where the funds we raise go, and to learn about the many ways you can get involved, please visit our website.
Fall will be here before we know it! Be ready with this special opportunity to support two organizations with one purchase.
We have partnered with We Grow Dreams Greenhouse, a local not-for-profit corporation, has provided job training and employment opportunities for people with disabilities. This is our third year working together and their mums are always stunning and long lasting.
You can order 9" Round Pots or 10" Hanging Baskets in assorted colors. Plants are anticipated to be in full bloom during the first week of October. Pickup will be September 25th at the Breckenridge Clubhouse from 2:00-6:00 PM.
Note: $5 of your purchase goes back to support the Spring Brook PTA! On sale through THIS Friday, August 29.
We are excited to offer both socks and shirts for spirit wear this fall. Sorry it requires two separate purchases, but both orders will be delivered directly to the school and sent home with students, saving you shipping costs!
Spirit Socks
New this year, we have custom Spring Brook socks on sale. Don't miss your chance to KICK the school year off on the right FOOT with this fun new option! Socks are on sale through Friday, September 5th.
Spirit Wear Shirts
We have a wide variety of spirit wear shirts on sale this fall. Featuring two designs and three color options, t-shirts, hoodies and performance shirts are available in both youth and adult sizes. The feel and quality of these items is improved over past years, at a reduced cost as well.
Spirit wear is on sale through Friday, September 5th. Don't miss your chance to show your Huskie pride!
Consider a PTA Committee Role
Want to get more involved in Spring Brook next year? We have several PTA committee roles open for the 2025-2026 school year. From big events to behind the scenes roles, there's something for every interest and schedule.
Membership, Dough Raising, Spirit Wear & Anti-Bully Week all need committee chairs. Adult Social, Spring Fling & Kids Heart Challenge all have committee chairs assigned, but would greatly benefit from a committee of volunteers or co-chairs for additional support.
Contact Marissa Kopp to get involved.
Room Parents Needed
As a room parent, you have the opportunity to get directly involved in your child's classroom, helping teachers plan and arrange class parties, collect and organize supplies for class projects, coordinate the class raffle basket in the spring, and more. Room parents play an essential role in communicating information from the PTA to classroom parents - we need you!
If you're interested in this important role, please complete this form. Room parents will be chosen and notified by the PTA Vice President by September 8.
