Spirit Wear Orders Due Wednesday

Discovery will have special Spirit Days the first Friday of school each month, where students can wear school colors (maroon and navy) or their Discovery shirts. This year, the PTA has basic or performance tees available in maroon and navy and hoodies in navy with a brand-new logo. Orders are going in this week so we have the tees and hoodies back by the first Spirit Day in October!

If you would like to purchase Spirit Wear, please send the order form back into your child's teacher by Wednesday, Sept. 26, with cash or check made out to Discovery PTA.

Classroom Box Tops Contest Announced

The first Box Tops contest of the school year is underway. The classroom that brings in the most Box Tops by Friday, Oct. 12, will win an extra recess complete with snacks. So start clipping those Box Tops and sending them in to your teachers in a ziplock bag or on a Box Tops collection sheet. Be sure to include the student's name, teacher's name, and grade.

Each Box Top is worth 10 cents, and they benefit individual classrooms as well as PTA schoolwide activities. Once we get our first counts of the school year, the PTA will update the bulletin board next to the cafeteria with the latest classroom totals!

Show Your Discovery Pride with New Spirit Wear

To help students celebrate their school pride, Discovery PTA has a fresh new Spirit Wear design featuring the mustang that will be available for special order starting on Back to School Night, Sept. 11, through Wednesday, Sept. 26.

Available for order will be short-sleeved basic tees and performance tees in youth and adult sizes in both maroon and navy for $11 and $13, respectively, and hoodies in youth and adult sizes in navy for $28.

Stop by the PTA table on Back to School Night to place your special order. In addition, you can shop our vintage Spirit Wear stock at discounted prices! We accept cash, checks, and credit cards. You can also take an order form and send back in by the due date with cash or check made out to Discovery PTA.

Students are encouraged to show their pride by wearing Spirit Wear, school colors (maroon and navy), or the special theme typically on the first Friday of each month: Oct. 12, Nov. 2, Dec. 7, Jan. 11, Feb. 1, March 1, April 5, and May 3. Spirit Days also coincide with the PTA's Popcorn Fridays. Students can purchase a popcorn pass or pay 75 cents to have a tasty popcorn treat on Spirit Day Fridays. You can still sign up for the popcorn pass for $5.25 for the remainder of the school year.
