As you can see, the PTO has been busy working on tightening up home/school communications and will be using this blog for weekly updates and all kinds of other information. Besides weekly updates, this will be your go to site for a calendar of school events, meeting and treasurer's minutes, volunteer needs, contacts and more. Jump in and discover what's on the blog and then look again as we add more content! BIG thank you to Kacey and John Boone for their technical guidance in setting up our blog.
Karen Carr is looking for some office help to stuff back to school envelopes and help with some photocopying/laminating projects. The school will be open this Thursday, Monday and Tuesday next week. Connect with Karen at kcarr@bsdvt.org.
The PTO is preparing sticker calendars this year that are designed to cover last years magnetic calendar. I believe the sticker will be slightly smaller, so the old magnet will have to be trimmed slightly. Our hope is that we can cut costs on this while also saving resources. If you have any old Flynn Fridge calendars that you want to get rid of, send them into the office and we will put them to good use!
Families/Staff old and new, join us for the Back to School Potluck next Tuesday (8/30) in the multi-purpose room/playground. Bring a yummy main dish to share. The PTO is providing the paperware, drinks and watermelon. Set-up from 5:30-6. We eat at 6pm.
Also join us on the first day of school for the annual Welcome Back Coffee in the North courtyard. When the bell rings at 8:10 parents will gather for a little caffeine, some breakfast goodies and great company. Come help welcome all the new Flynn families!
(a few folks have already volunteered to get coffee and bake something - if you are interested in donating a bottle of juice or baking/buying something, please send us an e-mail (see link on left side of blog or type in flynnschoolpto@gmail.com.
Have a great week. Looking forward to connecting with old friends and meeting the new crop of families. Kate B.
