The packets for the fall fundraiser - Genevieve - went home last Thursday in student's backpacks. Inside the Genevieve catalog, there are a number of terrific gift and gift wrap products available. Last Thursday at Open House, the PTO displayed a number of offered products. If you'd like to get a closer look at some of the items available for purchase, please stop by the PTO table at the Ice Cream Social.
Friends and family have the option of purchasing products online or completing the order form enclosed with the catalog. The envelop says orders are due October 4, however we will accept orders up until Tuesday, October 11. Thereby giving students the long weekend to talk to family and friends.
There are a number of "awesome prizes" based on the number of items sold. For 6 or more items sold, students will receive a Bonus Prize pass to Coco Key Water Resort in Danver's MA.
If you have any questions please contact Maria Woods at woodscounty@verizon.net.
Thank you for your continued support of the Pine Glen PTO.

Welcome Back
Welcome back to school! We hope your summer was both relaxing and fun. The PTO Board has been busy preparing for another school year. In your child's backpack this week you will find important PTO information including the 2011-2012 Pine Glen PTO pamphlet with Board contact information, PTO Volunteer Form, Membership Dues envelope, and a flier listing "Free Ways to Support Pine Glen School".
We would like to thank Catherine Gillespie, PTO Co-Vice President, for investing a great deal of time and thought updating and assembling all the PTO handouts. Also, many thanks to Julie Gosselin for copying and distributing all the materials and much appreciation to Nancy Keddy for printing the new colorful PTO pamphlet. Special thanks also to Denise Desmond for organizing the Kindergarten play dates held over the summer; the final Kindergarten summer social will be held this Saturday, September 10th at 10 a.m on the Pine Glen playground. We hope all Kindergartners and their parents/guardians were able to attend a session.
As many of you know, the main mission of the PTO is to provide enrichment opportunities for all Pine Glen students. We hope you have appreciated the many activities and supplemental materials and programs the PTO has sponsored. We also hope that you again join the Pine Glen PTO and become active participants by attending PTO meetings (held at 7 p.m. on the first Thursday of most school months) and volunteering on any of the many PTO committees. Perks for paid members include a student directory, a new school magnet, and emails with updates and special announcements.
The first PTO-sponsored event of the school year will be the Ice Cream Social/Bingo Night scheduled for Thursday, September 29th from 6-8 p.m. If you're able to volunteer some time to setup, serve, or cleanup, please contact Joanna DeFrancesco at joanna.defrancesco@gmail.com.
