PTA Update
Morton Fun Run #4 is just around the corner!
Do you know anyone with a small business who wants to advertise on some 300+ t-shirts? Or maybe you and your family want to sponsor with our new $25 sponsor line. Just complete the form and have it returned by March 6th. The money raised through pledges this year is going towards water bottle filling fountains, library furniture and future playground projects.
We appreciate our Morton Community and we are AWESOME!
It's almost time for our annual Science Fair at Morton!
We wanted to get information out early, so our kiddos have time to plan their projects. This year's Science Fair will be Tuesday, March 31st from 6:30-7:30 p.m. (registration for projects is due by Friday, March 13th).
Please find attached to this email the Science Fair flyer with information about registration and entry fee, and a "Scientific Method" worksheet and Display Board template for students to use for their projects. If you have any questions about a project or the Science Fair, please email our event leader Jody Green at: Jodymgreen@gmail.com .
Otherwise ... help your kiddos put their thinking hats on, and start planning their projects. We are excited to see what they present this year!
