PTA News
PTA Is Off and Running!
Upcoming Events:
Book Fair-- The PTA works with our librarian, Mrs. Gennette, to put on two Scholastic book fairs each school year. We are looking for volunteers to help with set up, take down, and to work in the actual book fair. Set-up begins Tuesday, September 5th. The Book Fair will run from September 6th-September 12th. If you can help, there is a sign-up sheet in the office.
General Association Meeting-- Our September meeting will be held at Back to School Night on September 7th in the MPR. PTA will present during the 6:45-7:15 gathering in the MPR.
Coloring Contest--Look for the flyer that went home regarding the PTA Conejo Council/Gelson's Market Coloring Contest. Gift cards will be presented to winners from local schools. Turn in your child's entry to the school office if you'd like to participate.
Box Tops--Last year, Walnut received hundreds of dollars for the Box Tops collected. Just look for the "Box Tops for Education" label on a variety of foods, cut out the box top, and send it in to the classroom. PTA collects and redeems the labels. Thanks for your help!
Jamba Juice-- Our first restaurant fundraiser will be held at Jamba Juice on September 27th from 2-6 p.m.. Stop by with your family for a cool treat--20% goes directly to Wanlut. You will receive more info soon.
Monster Mash-- It's not too early to be thinking about Monster Mash, one of our biggest fundraisers and most fun activities of the year! This year's event will be held Friday evening, October 27th. A committee is forming now to begin planning & preparation. If you'd like to be a part, email walnutwildcatspta@gmail.com.
