Better Together: 4th Grade Service Project
Our Pinney 4th Graders are Springing into Action by partnering with One Dublin to help families in our community going through a difficult time. One Dublin supports families experiencing an unplanned disruption to their daily lives. Our 4th graders are collecting outdoor toys to help brighten the day of the children impacted. We are asking Pinney families to consider donating one or more of the following outdoor items listed below. Students may bring these items to school and place them in boxes set up in the main hallway from April 1-12. We are better together and appreciate your continued support!
Sidewalk chalk
Bubbles
Kites
Nerf balls
Throw/catch games (velcro, scoop/basket)
Wiffle bat/ball
Jump ropes
Footballs
Basketballs
Soccer balls
Take Responsibility: School Supply Sales
The School Supply Sale has begun! Please go to shopttkits.com and use our school code #42860. Select the grade your child will be this fall. Once you complete the order, supplies will be delivered directly to the school and will be in your child's classroom for the first day of school. This year, prices remain at $45 (1st -5th grade) and $40 (kindergarten). As a reminder, purchasing supplies through Shopkits is optional. However, this is a great opportunity to have all the supply shopping done so that you don't need to hunt in the stores over the summer! The ordering deadline is June 7th. We do NOT order extra kits so please be sure to place your order in time.
