Ivy Hall PTO Blog, May 3, 2019

It’s hard to believe we’re less than a month away from the end of the 2018-2019 school year. Read on for updates on what we’ve got planned for the rest of the year, plus what you need to know for next school year, too!

In this week’s blog you’ll find information on:

  • Family Picnic
  • Fifth-Grade Spring Fling
  • 2019-2020 School Supply Kits
  • 2019-2020 Board and Committee Chairs
  • Important Dates and Other Reminders

Get excited for Family Picnic!

We hope you’re planning to join us next Fri., May 10, from 6–8 PM for our annual Family Picnic at Ivy Hall. You can pre-order your meal deals now on Membership Toolkit - save $0.50 per item when you pre-order and conveniently pay by credit card. Food prices increase onsite and please remember this is a CASH ONLY event.

Our committee has another fun event in store for us, and they need your help to make the event run smoothly. Please consider volunteering to help out. Log in to MEMBERSHIP TOOLKIT to sign up to help. 

May 17: Fifth-Grade Spring Fling

All fifth-grade families, plan to have your 5th grader join the fun on Fri., May 17, from 6:30 - 8:30 PM. Get ready for a night of music, fun, friends, snacks and prizes! View the FLYER for more details. 

We are still in need of donations and strongly encourage student pre-registration on MEMBERSHIP TOOLKIT for this drop-off event. Cost is $6 for pre-registration through Membership Toolkit, or $8 at the door. 

Any questions? Contact Vicki Wolpoff.

FINAL WEEKS: Order Your 2019 - 2020 Supply Kits!

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 must be placed through our Membership Toolkit website before June 1. We do not order extras, so this will be your only chance to order! If you don't have an account yet, 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! 
Order a School Supply Kit for your incoming 6th grader by June 1. 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.)
