BOX TOPS!!!

Thanks to the efforts of the Pine Glen PTO, here's a sampling of some of the items the library was able to purchase with our Box Tops for Education money this year!

We would like to thank everyone who helped make last evening's Pine Glen BBQ such a fun family time.   Many thanks to Erynn Mitchell for again chairing this event and much appreciation to all the volunteers who helped run it.  With catering from the Outback Steakhouse and music delivered by a DJ, families were able to enjoy dinner near the playground while the children played.  Pine Glen families were also treated to a visit by the Lowell Spinners Canaligator and School Superintendent Dr. Eric Conti!


Katie Lyons (Principal Lyons' wife) won the 50/50 raffle and then generously donated her winnings to the Pine Glen Family Fund, that assists Pine Glen families in need.  Thank-you Mrs. Lyons!  Through the participation of many, we raised $102 for this fund.  Thanks also to Catherine Gillespie, our new PTO Co Vice-President, for assisting me at the raffle table.


The next PTO sponsored event is 5th-grade graduation on Thursday, June 16th, 6-8 p.m.  We need 4th-grade parents to assist with serving refreshments during the reception because parents of 5th graders will be attending the ceremony.  Please contact Maria Woods at 781/270-4584 or woodscounty@verizon.net, if can you help.


Thank you,
Maria Woods and the Pine Glen PTO Board

PTO Board Members - Thank you

We would like to thank Joanna DeFrancesco for her terrific work as PTO Co-Vice President over the years.  She organized the annual PTO membership drive and managed PTO members, committee chairs, and volunteers.  Joanna always assumed her responsibilities with much dedication and grace.

We would also like to thank Jolene Fogarty for her many years of service to the Pine Glen community as a volunteer and PTO Treasurer.  Jolene too handled her responsibilities with grace and diligence.  We will miss her and her family as they join the Memorial community due to redistricting.  Pine Glen's loss is Memorial's gain as she joins the Memorial PTO Board as the new Treasurer.

We wish them all the best.

Thank you,

Maria Woods and the PTO Board
