Reminders
Food Drive
Our annual SME PTA Thanksgiving Food Drive is currently underway and runs through Thursday, November 21st. It is not too late for food donations which can be brought to the collection box in your child's classroom or at the table just outside the school office. In addition, our PTA gladly accepts monetary donations and grocery store gift cards. Please take monetary donations to the main office. Don’t forget to come talk with me if you are interested in receiving a food basket or require more information. Thank you for your continued support!
School Clean-up Day
We have planned our next school clean up day for Sunday, Dec. 15, from 2-4 pm. We are partnering with Disney through the allforgood website. Now we need 175 people to show up. If we get that number, one lucky volunteer will win 4 one day park hopper passes. Here's the sign-up link. https://www.allforgood.org/projects/bJjbv1J6
