Reflections Deadline extension

GOOD NEWS!!!! We are extending the dead line for the Reflections art competition to November 13. We hope this will allow more students to participate in the fun experience. We look forward to all of your student’s beautiful pieces that will be displayed at the Glendale Library Branch during judging.

Fundraiser Volunteer Sign-up

PTA

Our PTA Fundraiser is coming up. I need to get a small army of volunteers to make this fundraiser work. Every Tuesday and Thursday the student’s order forms will need to be picked up from each class room and brought to my house for sorting and packaging.  Picking up the orders should not take more than 20 mins in the morning. I need 1 volunteer for every Tuesday and Thursday morning of the fundraiser to pick up forms and bring them to my house. I will then need to have each order sorted and filled. I am asking for 4 volunteers on Tuesdays and Thursdays early-afternoon to come to my house to sort and fill each order. If we can get 4 volunteers I am hoping we can get it done in 1-2 hours. I will then need 1 volunteer to deliver each filled order back to the class rooms before school gets out. This should not take more than 20 mins as well. I am officially ending the fundraiser on the 19. But unofficially I will pick up any extra orders on Friday 19. So I will be asking for volunteers to help with sorting/packaging orders Friday morning before early release. Please fill in your name/phone number on the days you would be able to help. 

This sign up sheet is available online and will work better there since everyone can see what days are filled and what days are not. Use the link below to sign up online:


But if you don't want to use the online version I will try to keep this list as up to date as possible

Thank you

Art Competition

The PTA is excited about the art competition we are holding at the school this year. This art competition is an excellent opportunity for our students to show off their creative talents in painting, drawing, photography, music, sculpting, etc. The deadline for this competition is coming up soon. So those interested, need to have their entries submitted by October 15th to their classes. The student’s art will then be displayed at our local Glendale branch library for judging over fall break. We will have various awards for the top categories for Pre-k - 2nd grade, and then the 3rd grade through 5th grade age groups. We would like to give a big thank you to the wonder staff at the Glendale Library. They have offered to have a gallery night with refreshments on the opening night. We would like to have a people’s choice award that we can vote on during our gallery night. The art will be displayed through the remainder of the weekend at the library. After the judging the top art entries in each category will be sent on to complete at regional in December. The PTA would like to thank the students that have already started to submitted their wonderful work and would like to encourage others to join in on this fun and exciting activity. Remember that the theme for this competition is “Let Your Imagination Fly.” Each entry needs to include a 100 word maximum explanation of how their art reflects the theme. To help with this part try asking “what does ‘Let your imagination fly’ mean to you?” and remember to have fun with your expressions and creativity. The PTA is looking for volunteers who can help in sorting and organizing the entries, displaying the art at the library, or even with the judging. If you feel like you could help in any of these areas or in any other capacity please contact the PTA on the entry on the right of the website.
Remember PTA is here to help work together as a partnership with our teachers to improve the lives of our children
