THANK YOU so much to everyone who participated in our Natures Vision fundraiser! We were able to raise over $1500 to help fund field trips and events at the school, Without this fundraising these events would not be able to happen for our kids. I would also like to thank Freedom Credit Union for coming out to count the coins each day of the Penny Wars. This was such a huge help for our school! Our school raised over $830 for the Franklin County Regional Shelter, the charity designated by the winning Second Graders!
We have been planning a free movie night on a date to be determined. We have been waiting for equipment to be installed. More details on this as they come.
Our school's annual Bingo for Books event is coming up on March 6th from 6-7 pm! It's a great fun time for all members of the family, so come join us!
Also, on March 18th we are teaming up with 99 Restaurant's dining out for a cause program. By presenting a coupon, they will donate 15% of proceeds to our school with no extra costs from you while you enjoy a nice dinner out with friends and/or family. We will also have items up for raffles in the lobby, so stop by!
We are also working on some gardening/landscaping projects this spring. Some possibilities include a clean up day, updating/relocating the butterfly garden and getting benches to go around our trees by the main entrance. If gardening/landscaping is something that interests you please contact us.
As always our meetings are held the second Tues of the Month 6-7(:30) in the school library, and we have childcare available thanks to the National Honors Society at GHS. You can leave us message at 413-376-8666 [email protected] or visit us online www.newtonpto.weebly.com, wwwfacebook.com/newtonpto
