Sells eNews

Good Evening,

This week at Sells, we celebrated Red Ribbon Week with a variety of fun spirit days and meaningful activities. Red Ribbon Week is a nationwide campaign focused on drug and violence prevention, encouraging students to make safe, healthy choices and commit to a drug-free lifestyle. It’s also a time to raise awareness about the dangers of substance use and strengthen our sense of community responsibility in promoting positive habits.

As a friendly reminder, Daylight Saving Time ends this Sunday at 2:00 a.m. — don’t forget to set your clocks back one hour! We also know that time changes can be tough on everyone’s routine, so please extend a little extra grace to your students (and maybe yourself) as we all adjust.

Have a wonderful weekend!

With ROCK Pride,

Katy O'Neal

November 4th - NO SCHOOL

November 26, 27, & 28 - NO SCHOOL

Please don't forget to sign up for the DC Trip. Attached is the payment information.

Help us Fund the FUN! Each year the PTO does things like feed teachers, host (free!) events for students, provide teacher grants, and so much more. BUT we can't do it without you! Your financial support (as well as signing up - and following through on your signup - to bring donations) allows us do to these things! Without you, none of the above can happen. If you can't make a donation, who do you know that might be able to? Do you know any businesses that might like to make a donation? We will definitely give them recognition! If you use Venmo, you can make a donation to @SellsMSPTO.

Follow us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/sellsmspto for up-to-date information about everything that we have going on and how you can get involved!
