PTA Post
Edition 6
A Note from the President
The PTA has more events and opportunities to help the families in our community this month. We have had the excitement of the Fun Run, a blast at the Trunk or Treat and now as the holidays approach, we are using the character strengths the children are learning with Positivity Project, by adding a twist to our annual Giving Tree!
Watch for more information coming home and being blasted out, soon!
Congratulations to Regina Werner, the winner of our second Starbucks gift card- just for reading The Post and finding the clue to be entered into a drawing!
As always, I am proud to be part of our community, please feel free to reach out to me with any questions and, as always, drop in on our next meeting, November 1!

Thank you Glengary Families!!!
This was a great Fun Run and we couldn’t have done it without our families, volunteers and our 3 corporate sponsors, Hersch-Beattie Orthodontics, Walled Lake Schools Credit Union and the Commerce Costco! We also had awesome raffle baskets donated by Lucia White, a parent and Realtor in our community, as well as a few of our families looking to make the raffle exciting!
The kids had a great time and our school, children and staff will be supported for another year, as the majority of our budget is generated by the Fun Run.
The Results!
Our school, in total, raised $18,282.43!!!
Our top 3 classrooms, that will receive class parties are:
Ms. Donahue, Ms.Bonkowski, and Ms. Hinckley’s classes!!!
Our top 10 fundraisers for the whole school will participate in our Annual Gator Race for a $150 Amazon gift card!
