Each year, the PTO at Gurney collects gently used winter coats and other cold weather gear to donate to families in need. The collection for this year begins today. Information is available in the flyer above — or download the Giddings Coat Collection flyer here (0) and stick it up on your bulletin board. The program runs through October. Clean out those closets – and help a good cause.

District Fundraiser to sell Cookie Dough, Wrapping Paper

admin — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 16:15:17 +0000

Each year, the PTO sponsors one district wide fund raising sale. This year, we will offer Otis Spunkmeyer cookie dough (always popular) and Cherrydale Farms wrapping paper and gifts. Packets with sales contest information (for your child) and a catalog of items will be sent home on September 15th. You can place orders using the order forms through September 29th. Drop your orders off at any school – or send them in with your child. Winners of the sales contests will be determined by this sale event. You can continue to purchase wrapping paper throughout the school year online to support our school district. We will have the link on the front page of our website once the sale ends. So, if December 3rd you look in your hall closet and wish you’d ordered holiday wrapping…you still can. Here’s the promotional flyer (12) – more info to come later in the month.

At the start of each school year, most parents eagerly await stories of how well the first day went – but DREAD the packet of forms and flyers that arrive in those first day backpacks. Here’s some of what you got from us. We’ll be uploading the digital copies this week in case you need to download it or want to pass it on to a new community member later in the year.

Membership 2010 (6)

This is the PTO Membership Registration. Your membership fees support the grant programs of the PTO each year. They can be returned to any school building. If you decide to join us, thanks! We will try to keep you up to date with the information reported to us by the schools at our monthly public meetings.

If you’d like to volunteer at your child’s school, we’ve got lots of opportunities. Download the appropriate form below to see what is available. If you’d like to sign up, fill out the form and drop it off at the school office. (You can send it in with your child if they are reliable about turning things in!) If you are joining us late in the year, contact the PTO representative for your school (listed under contacts) to find out what events are still scheduled. We can always use extra help!

It’s time to re-register your school choice with the Heinen’s Reward Program! Heinen’s begins collecting your shopping credits this week and will use your total from now through April to determine how much they will donate to Chagrin Falls Schools. 1% of every dollar you spend in their stores will be donated to our schools. Everyone must register their cards EVERY year. Click the image or here to visit the Heinen’s Rewards page now. If you are already registered with their program, log in. Go to “Update My Profile” in the upper right corner. On the Profile Page, scroll to the bottom section on the ABC School Donation Program. There is a drop down menu to select a city and then a school. Update the page and you are done for the year!

Giant Eagle starts their program in September so more information and a link will be posted then.

Thanks!!

2010-2011 PTO calendars are on sale NOW!

admin — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 19:48:35 +0000

So, I guess summer is over. It’s still hot and we’ve still got 23 vacation days left on the wall calendar – but a sure sign of the coming school year has arrived. The Chagrin Falls PTO calendar is now on sale at Fireside and Heinen’s. This year’s calendar is in the same convenient size we offered last year. We’ve tweeked the layout and added monthly divider tabs – but kept all those important dates that you count on us providing to you. Once again, calendars are $10. They will be available at school open houses and welcome back events at the beginning of the year and by special request until November – unless we sell out. Great for the PTO, not so great for you. Get yours now and have one less thing to remember the week school starts.

And if you have a high school student, why not purchase one for them to use for their school planner?

Enjoy the last 23 days of summer break!
