Art to Remember Announcement
Hey there JME Families,
Some changes for our current ATR fundraiser. Effective today, we are moving to online orders only and all future orders will need to be shipped directly to your home since we do not know for sure when school will be back in session. The orders that have already been placed, both online and on paper, are being processed currently and will be sent directly to our ATR parent coordinator. She will be in contact with you for delivery or a meet up. Our order window has been extended to April 30th. Thank you for all of your support and flexibility. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Oregon State Testing Update
The state of Oregon will be submitting a waiver for state testing this year. Because of extended school closures due to concern for the coronavirus, Oregon Department of Education director Colt Gill said it would be impossible to administer assessments or comply with reporting requirements.
Plastic Recycle
We will not be able to accept plastic recycling while our buildings are closed. We hope that you continue to recycle your clean stretchy plastic and keep it out of the landfills and will provide more updates as we have more information.
Amazon Smile
Do you shop on Amazon? You can shop Amazon and raise money for our school. Shop through AmazonSmile and select John McLoughlin PTSO as your charity of choice. Amazon then donates 0.5% of the price of you eligible AmazonSmile purchase to the JME PTSO at no cost to you. We have already earned $300 this school year!
Fred Meyer Community Rewards
Did you know that through the Fred Meyer Community Reward program our PTSO has already received $1,800 this school year?! This is a no cost program. Simply link your rewards card to the JME PTSO online. You still earn all your gas rewards and rebates, but a percentage is given back to the JME PTSO. https://www.fredmeyer.com/topic/community-rewards-4
