It’s hard to believe that another school
year has almost passed us by.
New and exciting agendas are PTA’s cry.
 
 
You can still participate, and help 
organize all these things on our plate. No 
more meetings this year, but please share 
your ideas for the next school year.
 
We the PTA are extremely excited 
to announce the return of the fall carnival. 
We have been unable to host the carnival 
the  last  couple  years  due  to  low  PTA 
membership, flooding, and lack of funds. 
We  have  had  a  great  membership  count 
this  year,  no  flooding,  and  the  ability  to 
replenish our account to make the carnival 
possible again. We are hoping you are just 
as excited as us. With planning underway 
we could use input, donations, committee 
members,  and  help.  Great  ideas  are  in 
motion to make this Fall carnival the best 
ever yet!
 
To  start  us  off,  we  are  going 
to  bring  back  what  used  to  be  the  silent 
auction. Instead of a silent auction we will 
be  selling  raffle  tickets  for  13  different 
themed baskets. Each class will be asked 
to participate in this basket collection. A 
list will be provided for your convenience 
with this article. 
 
Also  we  will  be  offering  to 
students  K-5  a  chance  to  design  a  flyer 
for the carnival. Letters with information 
regarding  this  will  be  sent  home  very 
soon. 
 
We look forward to the summer, 
but we are all so very excited for a great 
school  year  of  PTA  2012-2013.Thank 
you for all your continued support. If you 
have  any  questions  about  PTA  or  would 
like to donate your time and energy to the 
planning and preparation  of the carnival 
please  call  our  PTA  president  Camrin 
Erryick 1-971-258-9994.
