Message from the President
It was so great to start of the school year with Take a Peek and Back to School Nights. Seeing students in the school laughing and learning brings a smile to everyone's faces, even if you can't see it behind the mask.
It has been a great first month! Thank you to the incredible administration, teachers and staff for welcoming the students back into the building and creating a safe and fun environment. We appreciate your dedication and commitment to the students of Mays Chapel Elementary School! If you have not already done so please sign up on our new and improved website to receive monthly newsletters from the PTO. All information can be found on PTO website at Mays Chapel Elementary PTO.
We have fun things planned this month. We are looking forward to your support at the Scholastic Book fair October 18-22. Students will visit the book fair with their classes during their regularly scheduled library time. Be on the lookout for order forms and flyers to come home from their homeroom teachers. Additionally, Wednesday 20th from 5-7pm parents can stop by the book fair to purchase books. There will be a casual family picnic on the school fields that evening so bring a blanket and dinner and meet and mingle with friends new and old. Get connected, be involved, and stay informed. Help our labs lead the way!
Katie Murray,
2021-2022 PTO President
