Treasurer Cathy Vokoun asked for anyone that collects money from fundraisers to
please let her know where and who it is from, and where it goes. As far as end
of the year parties we will need to wait to see what will fit into the budget a
little later.
Fundraiser updates are as follows: We have formed a committee to plan our Dollar
Days fundraiser, chair of this committee is Cathy Sopotonick.
Dollar Days is a big garage sale at the school put on by parents. You will be
able to bring any items that you would like to sell for a dollar. Everything is
a dollar. Any items are appreciated, including uniforms and any items that
local businesses may want to donate. Dollar Days will be held on the morning of
1/30/10 at PSE.. Items can be brought early that morning and/or dropped off
Friday 1/29 until 6:00pm. Proceeds go to the PTO.
We have also received the containers to begin our recycling program here at
PSE. Bring your paper products (magazines, catalogs, shredded paper ect.) to
help raise money for the school. SP Recycling will pay us for every ton of paper
products we recycle. For any questions contact Kristina Burrows.
We have kicked off our Schoolstore.com fundraiser as well. This is a year round
program for people to shop online and 5-10% of your order will go to the school.
For any questions email
Tracy@locketthome.com.
Our Media Center is in great need of books, so a committee has been developed to
plan a movie night here at PSE on 11/10 tentatively at 5:30
for pizza outside, and then moving inside the cafeteria for the movie. Bring a
book and possibly $1 or $2, and all proceeds will go to the Library. For any
questions contact Erika Sinclair. Just a reminder to get your Sunny D labels
in. For every 20 labels the Library will receive 20 books. This ends 11/14.
In upcoming events we have begun planning and working on the Holiday
Parade/Float. This years theme is Under The Sea. We have use
of an 18ft trailer, and are still in need of a pickup truck to pull it. For any
questions and info on how to help with the float contact Tara Schwartz at
Ohanasurfshop@bellsouth.net.
Throughout this year PSE is involved in Autism Speaks. They are having their
kickoff dinner on Nov. 12 from 6:30-8:30. Also PSE will be getting a team
together for the Walk For Autism on Mar. 20 at Jensen Beach High School, our
team name is the Stingray Shufflers. For any questions or info on how to get
involved contact Joy Burgener at
joyburgner@gmail.com.
We will soon have the minutes from our PTO meetings available on the school
website.
There is still 12 class rooms without a sponser, so if you know anyone that is
interested please give their info to Dr. Miller.
The next PTO meeting will be held on 11/5/09 at 6:00pm.
