Fundraiser Note:
Students will bring home packets today (4-6-16) for the Yankee Candle Fundrasier. Sale is April 6-18. See attached flyer for more information. You may also order online. Money should be collected at the time of taking the order. Checks should be made out to TZ PTO.
One of the roles of the TZ PTO is to provide support to the students and staff of Tzouanakis Intermediate School through fund raising. The TZ PTO provides many different opportunities for families to help support these efforts. The TZ PTO certainly appreciates any support that the TZ families and community may provide, however, we don't expect families to participate in all of the different opportunities. The TZ PTO tries to provided different options that would appeal to different people.
The TZ PTO also has the option for parents that would like to just donate and not participate in any of the fundraising opportunities.
Students will bring home the candle packets today. Please return the packet if you choose not to participate.
Again, we appreciate any support you may or have been able to provide, whether that is with your volunteering at an event or participating in the different fund raising efforts.
Silent Auction Classroom Baskets for the Family Fun Night are being put together...please send in any donations you have for these baskets by Friday, April 8th.

Volunteer in the Classroom or Field Trip--Need Background Check On File--Good for One Year
At TZ we appreciate parents/guardians that would like to volunteer to assist in the classrooms and/or go on field trips. As a part of any volunteer activity, we must have a cleared background check on file for each person wanting to assist here at school or accompany a class on a field trip.
I wanted to take time to clarify the limited/volunteer background checks. These background checks are free to our volunteers. A limited/volunteer background check is only good for one calendar year. If a volunteer wishes to continue volunteering after one year, they must submit a new application.
A link to the form that needs to be completed and turned in to the TZ office is below. You may also come by the school to complete the form. We do need to have a copy of your driver’s license to process the request.
Again, we appreciate your willingness to volunteer.
Mr. Strube
