Country Meadows PTO, Oct. 23, 2020

11/9! SAVE THE DATE! The Scholastic Book Fair is almost here!

Did you know that every year thousands of dollars worth of books are added to our Learning Center using Scholastic Dollars via Book Fair proceeds?

The Scholastic Book Fair is back! While our Fair will be exclusively online this year, we still plan on making it a fun and magical experience for kids. The Country Meadows Book Fair traditionally generates funds for new books for the Learning Center, classrooms, and students.

PTO COMMITTEE VACANCIES

There are still a number of vacancies on committees this year! Please check out the Country Meadows PTO MEMBERSHIP TOOLKIT to help out! We need you!

SUBMIT PHOTOS TO THE YEARBOOK!

The yearbook is a PTO committee volunteer-run effort and we need your help! Your personal photos can help make the yearbook so much better for this unique year!

As you can imagine, we will need your help this fall to collect pictures for the Country Meadows Yearbook. Start by uploading your child's photo(s) through the yearbook company's app or website:

Option 1: Download the HJ eShare app, enter the school code CM2021, tag and upload your pictures.

Option 2: Go to hjeshare.com, enter the school code CM2021, and tag and upload your pictures.

Option 3: Go directly to eShare and tag and upload your pictures.

2019–20 YEARBOOKS STILL AVAILABLE

If you didn't order a yearbook from last year, we do have some available! Please contact Elisha Magnifico or anyone on the PTO Exec Board to purchase a copy!

DON'T GET LOST!

We aren't losing hoodies and water bottles in the school building much nowadays, but we are sure you are doing some physically distanced activities outdoors and your family's masks might all be similar, no? Label them! And support the PTO!

Mabel's Labels donates 20% back to the school so that we may have the funds to get creative with programming for this special year!

Please go to MABEL'S LABELS and type in Country Meadows. Be sure to select Long Grove! You may apply any coupon codes or discounts and the school still benefits!
