Highland View PTO: Thanks! And a reminder...

Hello Highland View Families!

How great do those PBIS shirts look this year?  The kids seemed so excited to get them and I'm so glad the PTO does that for the students!  But on to the big news:

Thanks so much to everyone who signed up to help at the All the World Festival!  We are set to have the biggest one ever this year!  I can't wait until Friday!  But until then...

Don't forget our November meeting is this Monday, 11/10 at 6:00 in the Highland View Library.  In addition to usual business, Teens Against Tobacco Use and FACT at Greendale High School, in cooperation with the Greendale Health Department will be presenting the results of their research into the dangers and perceptions of several new nicotine delivery systems among our grade school students.  The agenda is online here.  The Minutes from the last meeting are online here for review.

We're also putting out the call for a couple parents to help hand out roasted pumpkin seeds this Friday (11/14) to our Highland View students at lunch as part of the Greendale Food Services "Sample Days."  Please let me know if you can help.  Volunteers would be needed from about 11:10-12:30.

Finally, the movie room for students was a big hit during conferences again--between the two days dozens of students took part, saving many parents the hassle of finding babysitters during conferences and made conferences so much easier for teachers too.  Sadly, we might not be able to offer that service for conferences on 11/25.  No parent has signed up to be in the room that night, and I have to work with the fundraiser pickup downstairs in the gym.  If you can stick around Highland View for a little while on 11/25 just watching kids shows in the library, it makes a real difference to a lot of parents and a lot of teachers.  Please sign up here.

Thanks again, and see you soon!
