Winter Break To-Do List

Before you forget about school for Winter Break, don’t forget the following, which are due on January 9.  Wishing you a safe and healthy winter break and a happy New Year!  Our next blog will be published on January 12.

  • Frozen Treat Friday in January through May - purchase by January 9

Frozen Treat Friday (formerly Ice Cream Wednesday) is one of the children's favorite programs.  The PTO distributes ice cream novelties at lunch every Friday to those who have pre-ordered a Frozen Treat Friday card.  Ice cream will not be sold on-site.

Each card is valid for Ice Cream Novelties throughout the winter/spring term (January to May). Hershey's Ice Cream Smart Snacks meet school nutrition guidelines. Dairy-free and gluten-free options are always available.  Purchase an Ice Cream Wednesday card by January 9, 2024, at http://linktr.ee/ivyhallpto

REMINDERS

Winter Is Here: Protect Your Belongings, Avoid the Lost & Found 

Winter is here: That means it's time to protect your child's belongings and avoid the Lost and Found. 

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.
