Moving On!
Mood:  special

Already moving on!  Thanks to the help we had last week, the fair was wonderful!  And now...on to the next event!

October 1st is coming fast!  Our Annual Fall Family Pot Luck and Raffle!  Cactus Park should be great that night--the weather is still warm now, but it should be nice in a couple weeks.  We are gathering raffle items now!  We'll have a special guest that night too--Wear It Now will be there with a special booth to create t-shirts with the kids' faces on them!  For only $18, Scott Overman will create a one-of-a-kind tee that parents can take home that night!

Then, of course, is the Fall Break.  No School for a week!  Already!

The Cookie Dough Sale will begin right after the break.  The dough should be delivered just in time for Thanksgiving.  A nice addition to any table. 

We should also have a PTO Dinner Out in October!  A busy month!

The Book Fair!
Mood:  lucky

What a nice week!  We had lots of people come by the Book Fair, so I know there are lots of kids with new books!  The Breakfast Tuesday morning was very nice--Elaine Gadd did a great job!  The Open House Wednesday night was fun too--lots of pictures of Superman and Supergirl!  The Jamba Juice was appreciated too!

Wish most folks had come Wednesday, though!  There was a lot of work that went into the Superman/Supergirl pictures, but only a few got their pictures on Facebook!  I hope a lot of folks check out that facebook page!  They are cute!

Scholastic Book Fair
Mood:  bright

Our Scholastic Book Fair is coming!  The theme this year is "Heroes!  Reading to the Rescue!"  It should be a fun week full of all kinds of books, fun, crafts and surprises!  The classes have been asked to decorate their doors with a special hero.  We will have a Best Decorated Door contest, votes collected at a Wednesday evening Open House, and Mr. Steve will dress as the winning hero for a whole day! :) 

Facebook Friends!

The Kachina Country Day School PTO Facebook is up and running!  How exciting!  Some folks have found it already, so I hope the word gets around fast!  I especially look forward to being able to post pictures right after an event so everyone can remember how much fun we had!

The Scholastic Book Fair is coming fast!  There are so many hours yet to be staffed...I'm sure folks will step up pretty soon!  It should be a fun year--the theme is "Here's to our heroes!  Reading saves the Day!"  What a fun theme for the kids to focus on--so many comic book heroes, and so many more "everyday heroes" will have the chance to shine that week! 

Meet the Teacher Night
Mood:  accident prone
Meet the teacher night was fun!  I enjoy hearing how the kids are doing and what they're doing in their classes.  I wish I'd thought to take some pictures!  There were so many people there!  I hope you made it...if not, remember the teachers are very open to your calls and notes.
