Ivy Hall PTO Blog, September 29, 2023

Thank You, Thank You!

While it may have been a shorter than usual week, we filled it with lots of Bookjoy at our Fall Book Fair!

'Thank you' to our Wildcat community for your support of our Fall Book Fair.  We loved seeing the smiles and excitement on the student’s faces as they purchased new books.  We can’t wait to hear which books are everyone’s favorite!

''Thank you' to our Wildcat community who came out to our annual Ice Cream Social and Book Fair.  It was so great to reconnect and catch up after the summer.  What’s better than a frozen treat and a good book?  

A huge 'THANK YOU' goes out to our dedicated Book Fair committee and volunteers, led by Stefanie Bergman.  Many hours of planning goes into making the Book Fair a success, and we couldn’t have done it without the entire committee and volunteers!

It’s not too late to shop the Book Fair.  Purchase books at our online Book Fair through October 7 at http://linktr.ee/ivyhallpto.

Don't Lose Your Back-to-School Gear

Does your Wildcat have a knack for losing his or her personal belongings?

Get yourself some durable name labels and support Ivy Hall PTO.  Mabel’s Labels has a label for all ages, and they stick to most common surfaces (and survive the dishwasher and washer/dryer). 

Head over to http://linktr.ee/ivyhallpto and click on the Mabel’s Labels link to get started.
