Principal Message
Happy Thanksgiving to all! I appreciate each of you and the important role you play in your child's education! Enjoy a few days off next week!
~ Restaurant Nights: There are two different restaurant nights below (see flyers) that you could attend as a family and help the Washington PTO raise funds. A portion of all sales is donated to the Washington PTO. Check them out below!
~ Conferences: Tonight is the second night of conferences, As a reminder, door #1 (office door) and door #3 (parking lot door) will be open, so please use one of those two doors when you come for conferences.
~ Book Fair: We will also be hosting a Scholastic Book Fair during evening conference nights. The hours of the book fair will be 3:00-7:30 each night of conferences. The PTO needs volunteers to help with the book fair! This is a really fun chance to volunteer...here is the sign up link to help!
~ Leadership Job Sign Up at Conferences: Be looking for the Leadership Job sign up table outside the media center when you come for conferences. This will be a chance for students to sign up for building wide leadership jobs, including classroom mentors.
We are also looking for 2-4 students in grades 3, 4, or 5 who would be interested in joining the Lighthouse Team. This team will meet 4 times during the year and will help make decisions about how to make our school the very best place it can be! That application will also be available at the sign up table at conferences.
~ No School at the elementary on Tuesday, November 21 through Friday, November 24 for the Thanksgiving break. School will resume on Monday, November 27.
~ PTO Meeting: Due to a variety of scheduling conficts, we will NOT be holding a November PTO meeting. The next meeting will be at 6:00pm on Tuesday, December 12, 2023.
As always, thank you for your support--it matters!
