--> Parents as Partners Night, held in September
PTA Membership sign up will be available on these
evenings. Linked is a membership form
to fill out as well as a Student Directory form.
Also linked here you will find a brochure
explaining the various PTA events and a volunteer
sign up sheet. We encourage you to read through the brochure and volunteer
for as many events as interest you! You can send these forms in with your
child in an envelope marked PTA or bring it to Parents as Partners Night.
We thank you in advance for your support!
--> Please come to the PTA meetings. We welcome
new ideas and look forward to an exciting year for our kids. With your
help our PTA can deeply enrich our children’s school experience. A coloring
table will be available for children.
--> Please spread the word to all Fishkill Plains parents
to take advantage of our e-mail distribution
list sign-up.
--> Our Fall (wrapping paper) Fund Raiser is due
back near the end of September. Throughout the year, we will be holding
various fund raisers, but this Fall Fund Raiser is our
most important one that raises the money that we use for the special
programs in the All Purpose Room. The children really
enjoy these and get a lot of good information in a way that is different
from the everyday classroom education. Please participate in the
fund raisers that are most useful to you; there is, of course, no
obligation to participate in all of them! Our possible schedule for
future fund raisers is as follows:
Sept - Fall Fundraiser (many
great holiday gifts!)
Oct - Entertainment
Books (makes a great holiday gift!)
Nov - Handmade Candles (makes
a great holiday gift!)
Jan - Otis
Spunkmeyer Cookies (to warm up your kitchen on a cold day with
some hot chocolate!)
Feb(Valentines) - $1 Candy Bars
Mar - Ultimate
Discount Cards (last year's cards expire in April)
Apr(Earth Day) - Environmentally Friendly
