PTO NEWS
Dear Lynn Haven Families,
This year has gotten off to a wonderful start! Last year’s
goal of providing new computers in the classrooms is almost met!
We are excited that with funds raised last year, our PTO has
purchased and is awaiting the delivery of 26 new computers for
classrooms!
As it begins to get cooler, we are taking orders for long
sleeve uniform shirts. This will be on a first come first serve basis
as we plan to phase out our current design and look at a new one for
the future. So, we will not be ordering new long sleeve shirts. We
plan to offer what we have remaining. The shirts come in youth
sizes small, medium and large and are $15.00 each. Order forms
will be available in the front office.
Our annual cookie dough fundraiser kicked off on
October 16, 2012. The children were greeted with an exciting
presentation from our cookie dough representative, Angie Taylor.
The orders have been turned in and the cookie dough will be
delivered on November 14, 2012! This fundraiser will help us move
toward our goals to improve our school in the coming year!
The Halloween Boo Grams have been a huge hit this year
and we are extremely pleased with the support you have given your
PTO while sending a nice treat to your child!
Don’t forget that you can order a Birthday Gram, a
Smiley Gram or a Shout Out at any time throughout the year! These
forms are available in the front office. The Smiley and Birthday
Grams are delivered to your child in their classroom with a scented
pencil, a ”Smencil.” These cost $1.00. The Shout Outs are $1.00 or
you can spend $2.00 and email a picture of your child to
[email protected] and get your child’s sweet smile
featured on the T.V.!
Please don’t forget that you can still join PTO.
Membership is open all year and is a fee of $5.00. Your
membership fee helps us to fund the different recognition programs
around the school as well as giving you a vote in the spending of
money raised and the election of board members. Being a member
of PTO doesn’t take a large time commitment. We hope that you
can give some time and volunteer around the school from time to
time, but we understand that not everyone has the extra time to
help. Don’t let that stop you from joining. You can be very proud
knowing that your membership has provided the opportunity to do
great things in your child’s school!
Remember, you can reach the LHES PTO anytime, day or
night at [email protected]
Your PTO Board Members wish you and yours a happy and safe
Holiday Season!
