For Teacher Appreciation Week, PTA is also hosting a Taco Bar 🌮 and Ice Cream Bar 🍨 for our teachers. If you are able to help donate, please see the sign up link below. All items need to be turned into the front office no later than 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, May 7. Thank you for showing your support!

Field Day is scheduled for Friday, May 10, and the only way to participate as a parent is to sign up to volunteer!

We need volunteers to help throughout the day with various games, inflatables, stations, snacks, set-up, and clean-up to make this day fun and successful for our students.

You can choose:

• All-Day: 8:00 a.m.-2:30 p.m. - Lunch provided at 11:00 a.m. during the PTA meeting.
• AM Shift (K-2nd): 8:00-10:45 a.m.
• PM Shift (3rd-5th): 11:45 a.m.-2:30 p.m.

Check-in at the table under the tent outside of the gym to get your badge and station assignment. All volunteers must have a completed volunteer application in Voly.

🤔 Do you just love standing in crowded aisles, studying fine print labels to get the exact supplies from your kid's school supply list?

😖 Do you look forward all year to driving around to multiple stores to price compare and search for that one hard-to-find item?

👎 What's that? No?!?!

🎯 Hit the easy button!

Order a school supply pack from our online sale, and your child's supplies will be waiting for them in their classroom before the first day of school. And $2 from every sale goes right back to Boggess PTA to benefit every student.

1. Go to www.EducationalProducts.com/ShopPacks
2. Enter the school ID, BOG007 (3 letters, 3 numbers)
3. Follow the directions to complete your order.
4. Keep your online confirmation as your receipt.

ORDER BY MAY 21. Prices increase $10 after May 21. All orders must be online. There will be no extra packs ordered.

If you wish to purchase supplies on your own, the school supply lists can be found at https://boggesspta.membershiptoolkit.com/School-Supply-Lists

This month, we want to recognize someone who is always there when we need a hand and who supports every PTA event as the best DJ in the business: Coach White! We couldn't do it without him. Thanks for all you do for the PTA, Coach!

And we need to thank two special volunteers who gave generous donations to make Field Day possible. Thank you, Eric Schwarz and Paige Ngo! Every student will have lasting memories from your generosity.
