Highland View PTO:  Save the Date!  (And Pick a Date!)

Hello Highland View Families!

1) Save the date!
Do you remember when I mentioned that Mrs. Kleinowski was working with local restaurants to help fundraise for our PTO?

Well save the date for Highland View Night Out number one!
March 17th, 2016
4:00-7:00PM
Chik-fil-A on 76th Street

Just show up to Chik-fil-A between 4-7PM on March 17th, and be sure to mention you're there for Highland View.  If you do, they'll donate 15%!

2)  Pick a date!
I really would like to have an event in March.  And a lot of parents had mentioned they were interested in some sort of science, STEM,  or learning themed activity.  However, at the moment, only two folks (including me!) marked out times they'd be available to meet to start getting ideas on paper to make this happen.

If that's the case, there's actually no law that says we have to do anything in March; we could skip that month. However, if you ARE interested in helping put some ideas together for March, there are 47 possible time slots we could meet in the first week after break--just put a digital "x" in the ones you could fit in your schedule at the site here, and we'll meet when most of us can!

3)  Pick a date #2!
Second verse, same as the first!  Except in this case, we're looking for parents interested in putting the finishing touches on developing a helpful program for "Room Parents" at Highland View.  The current draft of a Room Parent plan is available at the link here so you know what we're talking about, and can start coming up with your thoughts and ideas right away!

If you're interested in helping get this AWESOME program going, there are also 47 possible time slots to meet in the first week after break.  Just put your digital "X" into any of the slots that might work for you and we'll pick the one that most people can go to!

Thanks so much everyone!  Happy Holidays!
