Continuing Thanks
In response to the added stresses of these difficult times, the PTO has tried to bring a little warmth and appreciation to our hard working staff in the middle of the day. We had such great success with our Hot Chocolate Cart in December, that we will be providing another little pick-me-up to staff again in February. They will be able to enjoy an energizing beverage and prepackaged treat of their choice. The PTO also continues to stock the staff bathroom with a few, much appreciated extras. We would not be able to incorporate these little acts of kindness without the support of our families through fundraising. Thank you!

Virtual Family Trivia Night
Back by popular demand, but tweaked for current circumstances, Family Trivia Night is going Virtual! Join us from the comfort of your own home and battle your buddies in an epic Kahoot Trivia game
Friday, February 26 @6:30pm.
The Meet will go live at 6pm for those who want to log on and chat, and the game will begin at 6:30pm. It will work best if you have two internet capable devices. Your child can log into their school google account to join us on Google Meets from their Chromebook. Then on your second device, you can log into our Kahoot game. Our host will share their screen so everyone sees the questions at the same time, and then you will answer from your Kahoot game.
There will be gift certificate prizes for our top 3 families!
A flyer will be sent home with details and reminders next Friday. If your family wants to join the fun, you can email me at Stonebankpto@gmail.com. Please include Your Family Name (and Your Team Name, if you would like it to be different than your family name). When your email is received, you will be emailed a confirmation of your sign up along with the login information for the Google Meet and the Kahoot game. Login information will also be included in the flyer, and posted on the PTO website next Friday, but an email would be much appreciated, so we can keep track of teams, numbers, and prizes. If you're signed up to participate and have trouble logging in or are running late, we will know to contact you the night of the event for reminders or assistance.
Thanks!

Keeping sending in your receipts from the Piggly Wiggly and Albrecht’s Sentry. Have students place them in the small, plastic drawers in front of the office.
