Get ready for the fastest quarter of the year (or so it seems)
I know each quarter is nearly equal but the quarter that includes Thanksgiving and ends at Christmas seems to be only half as long. Maybe because we also have parent/teacher conferences in there too. At any rate, we are about to go warp speed.
There is a fundraiser that is in association with one of our local stores, Fred Meyer, that I would like to promote. I don't have a favorite store, and I am not endorsing them on any level other than they are willing to give "free money" to our PTO. By free money, I mean you do not have to do anything different than you already are doing other than, if you shop at FM, you can designate their Community Rewards program to come to our PTO. Only 17 households are currently signed up (see picture below) and we get over $100 this quarter. If we didn't do anything but go on line and click a few buttons, I estimate that this could turn in to $2000 a year to our PTO. That is $2K that goes toward our kids. Imagine if your extended family, (Grandma, Grampa, Auntie, Uncle, etc) also designated our Tustumena PTO account. Please think about it. If you need/want help, please stop by my office some time and I will help you.
Thanks for considering this.
