PTA's Upcoming December Events

Time is flying, and the holiday season is upon us. Here's what Discovery PTA has going on in December:

Friday, Dec. 1: Instead of Popcorn Friday, we're feeling festive and doing Licorice Friday. If you didn't buy a popcorn pass at the start of the school year, please send in 50 cents with your student for a licorice treat. Popcorn Friday will return in January.

Tuesday, Dec. 5: The December PTA meeting will be held at 4:10 p.m. Because of the holidays, we will be skipping the January meeting and will reconvene on Tuesday, Feb. 6.

Friday, Dec. 15: Help Santa fill his sack with Box Tops. Each Box Top for Education label is worth 10 cents, and they do add up quickly! The class with the most Box Tops during this contest will win a holiday surprise.

Friday, Dec. 15: Help the PTA provide side dishes, desserts, and drinks for the Discovery staff holiday luncheon. View the signup sheet at http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0e4faca729a1f85-staff if you're interested in helping out.

PTA's Upcoming November Events

I hope November is off to a great start for Discovery families. Hopefully all of the kids have bounced back from yesterday's sugar overload.

The PTA has several events this month, so please mark your calendars.

Friday, Nov. 3: It's that time of the month again for Popcorn Friday. If you didn't prepay for the year for your student to have a popcorn snack in the afternoon, you can send in 50 cents that morning. Also, the PTA needs help bagging the popcorn. If you have time, stop by the cafeteria between 8:30 and 9 a.m. to help out.

Tuesday, Nov. 7: The November PTA meeting will be at 4:10 p.m. Join us to hear the latest on Box Tops, playground improvements, and other school activities.

Friday, Nov. 10: Discovery PTA will host its fourth annual Discovery Donuts from 8 to 9 a.m. in the cafeteria. This is a great opportunity for students to bring the special adult in their life to share a donut and socialize with other Discovery families before school.

At the same time, everyone can visit the Reflections Gallery that will be set up in the gym. Enjoy the fabulous art entries that students submitted for this year's PTA Reflections competition, Within Reach. There also will be activities and a movie in the gym at this time.
