PTO Provides Grants for Teachers
Dear Teachers,
The Pickerington High School North PTO provides grants for teachers. If you are interested in applying for a grant, the application is in the PTO form mailbox in the PHSN mail room. After you complete the request form, please give it to our principal for his review. He then sends it to the PTO for its consideration. The PTO does not meet every month, so please allow enough time for its review.
In addition to teacher grants, the PTO also provides grants to students. Their projects must benefit the school or the community. The student must also have a teacher mentor sign the application. It also needs to be submitted to the principal before the PTO reviews it.
We appreciate all that you do for our students and school!
Best always,
Janet Thiede, President
PHSN PTO

Encouragement Campaign
Every Tuesday [Tata Tuesday’s], staff members are encouraged to wear pink [and jeans if you’d like – Ulbrich approved].
We will also be sending out t-shirt order forms of a special design to wear on Tuesday’s and all proceeds will go to support our Panther families.
The second part of Tata Tuesday’s is the act of Encouragement. On Tuesday’s, we’d like for you to take a moment and send a note/email/text to Mylinda, Renee, or another staff member that may need a word of encouragement. Ashley Whitmer will be putting card stock, the size of post cards that you could drop in the mail, around in the work rooms mail rooms and lounge for you to use as another vehicle for encouraging fellow staff members.
Part three is an open room – 138- at 6:50am for anyone who would like to come and pray for our staff members fighting this fight. We are keeping this time specifically for staff members in need of special attention for a myriad of reasons.
We are a great staff and we have a gift of coming together in tough times. Please help us to maintain our strength in this area by supporting our cause.
