The Willow Grove PTO 'thanks' you!

"Thank you" ~ from The Willow Grove PTO!

Book Fair & Ice Cream Social

Thank you all for coming out last night to our first social event of the year!

It was a huge success, and we hope everyone had a fun time!

Raffle winners will be announced in this week's Principal's Message

Additionally, thank you for attending our in-person book fair! In case you missed it, the book fair will continue online until Sunday, Oct. 31, at this link (click here).

Orders of more than $25 will ship free to your home. 

 

Halloween Parties on October 29!

Our room parents put together a fun celebration in each classroom!

Here are the times for the parties:

  • Kindergarten & Structured: 10:30-11:15 a.m.
  • AM Blended: 10:00-10:45 a.m.
  • PM Blended: 2:00-2:45 p.m.

Only approved PTO parent volunteers may enter the building for the classroom parties. All volunteers must have followed procedures for verifying vaccination or have proof of a negative Covid test. Every PTO volunteer approved to come into our school MUST have their license or ID scanned through our security system to enter. 

There is always a very long line at this first party, so please anticipate this.  We highly encourage PTO room-party volunteers to swing by Willow sometime in October before the party to have their license scanned, which will speed up the process.
