Rockin at the Rec - TONIGHT (3/10) - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
Rockin at the Rec is Council PTA's only fundraiser, and the funds raised go toward assemblies for all grade levels, grants for teachers/staff to purchase items that are used directly in the classrooms, as well as scholarships for graduation seniors. So, not only is this a fun activity for our 6th, 7th and 8th graders each month, it is how we are able to give back to them during the school day, as well.
Our next Rockin at the Rec is tonight, Friday March 10, 2017, 6:30 - 9:00pm. If you student didn't purchase tickets at school this week, they will be available for $10 at the door. This month's theme is St. Patrick's Day/green.
This is a great opportunity to see what Rockin at the Rec is all about and only takes a couple of hours of your time to help. Please help support this worthwhile fundraiser by signing up for a shift using the link below. Parent volunteers will receive a free ticket for their child.

IAAT
Coming home with students today is a letter that gives information about the Iowa Algebra Aptitude Test (IAAT) that they will be taking on Wednesday, March 22. The letter has an Opt-Out section at the bottom of the page. It is to be signed by a parent and returned only if you DO NOT want your child to take it. We encourage all of our 6th grade students, taking honors math, to take the test.
