HEY, FOURTH-GRADE PARENTS
We need volunteers for Girls' and Guys' Nights Out–especially fourth-grade parents who can help during the event and "learn the ropes" for next year! Volunteer today on IVY HALL PTO MEMBERSHIP TOOLKIT.
2018–2019 SCHOOL SUPPLY KITS NOW AVAILABLE
We are pleased to announce that we are again offering the convenient service of complete back-to-school supply kits for the 2018–19 school year. Skip the last-minute shopping in August and order a supply kit for your child! Prices are competitive with local and online stores, and Ivy Hall PTO receives profits from this sale that go right back into helping our school, teachers, and students. And it's EASY! Kits will be waiting for you at Meet the Teacher Day in August.
All orders will be placed through our Membership Toolkit website. If you don't have an account, it's easy to get started–set up your IVY HALL PTO MEMBERSHIP TOOLKIT today!
Attention 5th-grade parents... It's time to start thinking about Twin Groves School Supply Kits for your incoming 6th grader. To order your kit, please go to the TWIN GROVES PTO MEMBERSHIP TOOLKIT.
(Note: If you have children in multiple D96 schools, you'll be able to use the same log-in for all Membership Toolkit sites.)
*VARIETY SHOW UPDATE*
We are happy to announce the 2018 Variety Show is back on with a revised schedule. Please download/review the Variety Show Flyer which can also be found on the virtual backpack. Student sign ups will begin after Spring Break, and we'll share specific details at that time.
We can always use additional parent volunteers so feel free to continue to sign up on Membershiptoolkit. CLICK HERE TO VOLUNTEER
Those that truly feel passionate about this event are strongly encouraged to sign up NOW for next year. There is a form on IVY HALL PTO Membership Toolkit for next year’s committees and you’ll find Variety Show there.
