PTO

Last night (9/25) was our first PTO meeting of the year and we had a terrific turn out. Our next challenge will be to keep attendance numbers this high. The PTO is very important to Sioux Trail; they make a difference by making our connection between school and family even stronger, running fund raising activities and and supporting the learning and infusing fun into our community.

Some of the agenda items from last night included:

• Reports from the principal, the treasurer and the volunteer coordinator
• Updates on Sally Foster, Harvest Fest and the Book Fair
• A proposal to get Art Masterpiece and Music Bravo up and running for the 2008-09 school year (we need more volunteers)
• A proposal to purchase and sell "Spirit Wear" (clothing with the logo on it - watch for it soon!)
• Recaps of the fall clean up and Burger King night (we cleaned up the exterior of Sioux Trail and it looks GREAT and we raised over $90 at BK!)
• An Update on Wish Lists (up to $10,000 is being granted as I type!)
• New items include: School Supply Kits, an online fundraiser and use the bouncies

The next PTO meeting is October 23 at 6:30 PM
