The last PTO meeting of the year

Parents!  Teachers!  Children!

(and a hearty welcome to the new GBLUES parents!)

 

Please come to the last PTO meeting of the year at 6:30 pm on Tuesday, May 31st.  We want your feedback on the last school year, we need your energy for the upcoming, and if that's not enough encouragement, I'm going to try really hard to bribe you to attend, promising a tasty bit of sugar and an all-ages GAME SHOW to launch the evening.  Jen Yaukey of Phantom Shadow is treating us with a all-the-bells-and-whistles GAME SHOW for all ages to participate in and enjoy watching. She has agreed to do a little sneak peek mini-show for the kids at the end of the school day on Tuesday, so when they come home dying to come Tuesday night, well, agree!  So, see you then?

 

Earlier this month, the middle school's family night included a chocolate chip cookie bake-off that I've been regretting not entering.  So when I was giving some serious thought to what to serve for snacks at our PTO meeting, this was an easy conclusion:  cookie contest!  Bring a dozen or two of your very best cookies to show off and share.  We'll have two categories:  classic chocolate chip and "the others".  You probably won't beat my chocolate chip cookies, but you can try ;).

 

I've ordered a little something crazy awesome for the winners of both the game show and cookie contests.  Just wait until you see them.  You'll definitely be jeal. 

  

The business end:  we need to get our PTO staffed and ready to commence our labor of love into the next school year. Lisa sent out an e-mail listing most of the PTO helper positions earlier this morning.  Some of this year's workers have agreed to continue their work next year, but we still need both coordinators and workers for many of our activities; please consider stepping up to help get the work done next year.  With a small student body, we need a higher number of parent participants....and it's often good fun as well.  THINK ABOUT IT, then come and hear more on Tuesday.  I'm sticking with Fall Festival, being more involved this year in Holiday Store, and centering more on volunteer recruitment, so we REALLY NEED A NEW COORDINATOR for next year.  Takers, please?  It's bound to be good for your resume or something....
