How We Support Park Village

August 1, 2009

 

Dear Park Village Parent,

Wow… it’s hard to believe summer is coming to an end, and school is just around the corner!  Our PTA has been working hard this summer to plan exciting events and programs for the 2009-2010 school year! 

DID YOU KNOW?  Our PTA promotes the welfare and education of our children at home, school, and our community by funding and supporting the following programs and services: 

  • Assemblies (100% of cost)
  • Field Trip Buses
  • Classroom Supplies
  • Author’s Fair
  • Scholastic Book Fairs
  • Literacy Support – Penguin Pals
  • Character Counts! Education
  • Library Resources
  • Reflections Art Program
  • Red Ribbon Week
  • Staff Appreciation
  • Safety & Wellness
  • Parent Education
  • Lunch with DADS
  • Penguin Rock
  • DADS Olympics
  • Movie Night
  • Astronomy Night
  • DADS Pancake Breakfast
  • Diversity Programs
  • Variety Show
  • Student Directory
  • Weekly EFLASH
  • School Beautification Projects
  • Yearbook
  • Workroom Equipment
  • Playground Equipment
  • Gifts to School

 

DID YOU KNOW?  All of these programs and services are funded entirely through family donations and our PTA fundraisers, such as:

  • Gift Wrap Sales
  • Opt Out Donations
  • Entertainment Books
  • Spirit Wear
  • Fall Scholastic Book Fair
  • Family Portraits
  • Grocery Club Card Kickbacks 
  • Restaurant/Book Store Night
  • Summer Workbooks
  • School Supplies

 

Last year, our PTA spent approximately $75 per student on programs and services that directly benefitted our children and school.  Our goal is to continue providing these programs and services, but WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT, especially in light of the significant state education budget crisis!

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

  • Become a PTA member for only $8.00 per adult
  • Make a tax deductible donation to the Park Village Elementary PTA
  • ParTicipAte in our fundraisers and/or Opt Out Donation Program
  • Become a volunteer

 

Keep an eye out for our EFLAS  to learn more about our fundraising efforts and the programs and services we will be providing this year.  We look forward to seeing you at our annual Popcicle Posting on August 19th at 4:00 p.m.

Best regards,

The Park Village Elementary PTA
