Breakfast with your Buddy is next week - register by Tuesday!
There is still time to register for one of our student’s favorite events of the year - Breakfast with your Buddy! On April 25, students are invited to enjoy breakfast at school accompanied by an adult (parent, grandparent, aunt/uncle, neighbor, etc). Siblings are welcome to join. Breakfast with your Buddy begins at 7:15 am in the cafeteria. This year, we are offering a beverage-only option for adults, but a meal must be purchased for all children attending, including siblings. A selection of warm and continental breakfast options will be available. No food or beverage tickets will be sold at the door.
Please Note: This is not a drop off event and pre-registration is required for everyone who attends.

ONGOING FUNDRAISERS

Support our ongoing fundraiser in partnership with North Shore Plant Club. The North Shore Plant Club’s mission is to make gardening more accessible to the community. You can purchase a wide range of plants at almost wholesale prices. Ivy Hall PTO will receive a portion of your purchase.
Joining the club is free and gives you access to great prices, a huge selection of plants that arrive fresh from the growers, while shopping from the convenience of your home. When you join North Shore Plant Club and purchase a plant using our special link, 5% of the proceeds will go to Ivy Hall PTO.
You, friends, family and neighbors will be able to order 15 different times between April and October and support the fundraiser. There are Plant Club pick up locations in Buffalo Grove (near the Prairie View Metra Station), Barrington, Glenview, Deerfield, Lake Forest, Libertyville, Naperville, Skokie/Evanston, Wilmette and Winnetka.
