PTA Notes
The TN PTA Reflections Program provides students from across the state the opportunity
to be creative in developing artwork in any (or all) of six art categories: dance
choreography, film production, literature, music composition, photography,
and visual arts. Students work on their own to create artwork which best relates
their vision of a theme, which for 2020-2021 is “I Matter Because....” There are
multiple levels at which the students may be recognized for their work,
including the local PTA unit, council (where applicable), state, and ultimately,
for the best in each category for each division at state, National.
For more information contact Gerand Saffles or Lacey Fitzgerald at reflections@fispta.org or visit http://www.tnpta.org/student-programs.html.
Submit all Reflections entries to the Farragut Intermediate PTA or school office on or before January 6, 2021 to qualify for State. Students registration forms can be found at https://tnpta.org/reflections/2020/studententryform.pdf.
Collections Reminder
Amazon Smile
Holiday shopping is upon us! Make sure your Amazon Smile account is set to donate to Farragut Intermediate School, and Amazon will donate directly back to our school with no cost to you!
Kroger
With the holidays coming up, we all might be spending a little more time at Kroger! Link your Kroger card to Farragut Intermediate School, and at least our school will benefit from our higher grocery bill!
Giving Tree Update
THANK YOU FROM PROJECT GIVING TREE!
Our Giving Tree Team is overwhelmed by the generosity of our Farragut community and would like to thank everyone who donated and spread the word this year. We also appreciated the support of our teacher volunteers who assisted at the event. In a time of uncertainty and extraordinary challenges, we were able to serve more families and children than ever before!
TOGETHER, WE:
* Served 100 families with 260 children, and
* DOUBLED our fundraising goal ($25,000!), allowing us to provide even more assistance to our Giving Tree families.
* Special thanks for support from many local churches/ministries:
Concord United Methodist, Christ Covenant, Compassion Ministries, First Baptist Concord, OneLife Church, Virtue Church, Grassy Valley Baptist, and Faith Promise.
* Thanks to our Farragut school administrators and the Town of Farragut for allowing us to collect gift cards at multiple sites.
THANK YOU FOR GIVING!
