Weekly update for the Meadows Elementary School community
Thank You for Supporting Our Children through Meadows PTSA and the Foundation!
Thank you to all of our families who joined us at The Habit in the Granary Square for our PTSA fundraiser, restaurant night. Please don't forget to turn in your Reflections art contest entries. All entries are due October 2nd. Here is the packet containing interest information and details. Turn in your packet to your teacher or the main office this week. If you have questions, please email PTSA.
We would love to have all of our families and students join the PTSA. It's only $8.00 per person. Any family that joins will receive the following: a free week of classes from Iron Fist Martial Arts, a free kids meal certificate from Islands, free Menchies yogurt and a few other freebie coupons. It's a great deal! To join, click here and download the form or use paypal and click here for the link. Thank you to all of our families who have already registered and joined our PTSA!
Please also remember that our field trips are incredible learning experiences for our children. This year, our Foundation is asking for a $20.00 donation from each student to cover the cost of admission and transportation. This donation will go directly to our field trips for the entire year. All donations are due by 10/11. Thank you to everyone who has generously donated!
Thank you to our families who also donated and made purchases in our last Book Fair. This year, we were able to purchase a class set of books from Scholastic Dollars. We were also able to fulfill all of our teacher's "wish list" items from the last fair. Please look out for information for this upcoming event.

Meadows Reminders
Here are a few reminder for this week to help everyone be safe, involved, and successful!
Please remember that taking home homework is part of being a responsible student. After 3:30pm, our main office staff has left and our custodians are cleaning classrooms. They will not be able to interrupt their runs to get homework. Please remember all items before you leave school.
- Parents and community members save the date for the State of the District Annual meeting on 10/15.
- Please give important attention to making sure your child is wearing a bike helmet everyday while biking to school. No skateboards, no scooters allowed. They must bring their own padlock to lock up their bike.
