 PTA Funds Restricted At a special PTA meeting on Tuesday, November 13, the PTA general membership voted to restrict $922 for the purchase of a new Automated External Defibrillator (AED). This device will replace a broken one that was purchased by the PTA several years ago. The membership also voted to restrict $20,000 to be reserved for the purchase of technology (which could include items like interactive boards, voters, i-Pads, laptops, etc.).
We would like to thank all PTA families for helping make these contributions possible! |

November Farm-To-School Day
The next Farm-to-School Day is Wednesday, November 28th, and the item is local sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are one of the MOST nutritious foods in the vegetable kingdom. They are packed with calcium, iron, and vitamins B-6, E, and C. Their beta-carotene and vitamin A are great for your skin. Their potassium helps stop muscle cramps, so eat them before playing sports.
Don't miss these nutrition super heroes either with the school lunch, as an a-la-carte item for $.75, or packed in lunch brought from home. Contact Rebecca Evans at TheEvanses@gmail.com for information and to volunteer. |
