PTO News!
Trunk or Treat Thank you Thank you PME families for showing up for all of the Trunk or Treat fun! And for your patience as we navigated the weather. It was wonderful sharing the day with the PME community. Thank you also to PME staff for their support and to our AMAZING trunks who brought so much creativity!! They were all so great and two were voted favorite trunk – in first place, The Sandlot and in second, The Seven Dwarf’s Mine Train. Congrats and thank you again!
Get ready for Turkey Trot! Our annual PME Turkey Trot is coming up on November 20! This is our largest fundraiser of the year and all money raised goes directly back to the school. There are also some fun prizes up for grabs! You can donate cash, check (to PME PTO), or online here. And all students will participate in a day of moving, music, and school spirit on November 20 during their related arts time! Parents are welcome to join to walk or cheer on their student. A sign-up genius will be coming soon for volunteers!
- Leadership Clubs Amazon List PME Leadership Clubs are in full swing and PTO has an ongoing Amazon wish list that combines some general needs from the clubs. If you are interested in donating anything, follow this link and you can bring the items to the front office at PME for distribution to the appropriate club. We are so lucky to have this monthly leadership opportunity for our Pelicans!
