2018 Holiday Service Project - Mitten Tree:
Prairie Vista Elementary School will be participating in a holiday service project that will benefit families in the Prairie Vista and Penn-Harris-Madison Community. We will have a Mitten Tree in the office and each mitten will have a short description of the child’s age, gender, clothing size and/or toys. If you would like to purchase a gift, please stop by our mitten tree in the school office and pick up a mitten. All you have to do is register your mitten with the office staff, buy your gift, and RETURN THE GIFT WITH THE MITTEN on the outside of the package to the office by Monday, December 10th. Please DO NOT wrap the gifts. If you would like to make a monetary contribution or gift card contribution, we will gladly accept those as well in the office.
If you would like for your child to pick a mitten from the tree, please fill out the permission slip. They must have a permission slip before they take a mitten off of the tree.
In addition to sponsoring families, we are accepting clean, gently used clothing, coats/outerwear, and boots to donate to schools that have children in need. Also, we will be collecting games that are in good condition, to donate. Please label the gently used items as “school donations” so we can separate them from the gifts.
We really appreciate the giving attitude of our families and staff! Any support for Prairie Vista and the Penn-Harris-Madison Community families would be very much appreciated!
If you have any questions, please email Stacie Petty at spetty@phm.k12.in.us

Holiday Thank-A-Teacher
HOLIDAY THANK-A-TEACHER
Has a teacher or any school staff member touched your child’s life in a special way? Are you looking for the perfect holiday gift for your child’s teacher or special school employee?
You may Thank-a-Teacher (or recognize ANY P-H-M employee) with a truly meaningful gift. A donation to the P-H-M Education Foundation Grant Fund tells your child’s “Special Person” that you honor him/her and value education at P-H-M. Your contribution to the Grant Fund will be returned to the schools in the form of TEACHERS GRANTS for programs and projects that cannot be funded through school budgets.
Your child’s “Special Person” will receive a holiday greeting and special pin telling him/her the name of the donor (not the amount given). A “Special Person” can include a teacher, aide, librarian, bus drive, custodian, or any other P-H-M employee. All contributions to the Foundation are tax deductible, please contact the office if you would like a tax receipt. To learn more about the P-H-M Educational Foundation, visit www.phmef.org.
