There's no one way to show your appreciation, but if you need help, here are some ideas...

• Monday: Color Me Grateful! Dress in your teacher's favorite color! Any bright color will do!
• Tuesday: Supplies and Lattes! Help teachers refill (supplies) or refuel (lattes)!
• Wednesday: Plants are the new apples! Bring a plant or a flower from your garden or handmade!
• Thursday: Thoughtful Thursday: Share a handwritten note, memory, funny joke, a colorful drawing or heartfelt poem.
• Friday: Treat Yo' Teacher: Bring your teacher a bottled or canned beverage OR a sweet or salty treat! Yum!

Students can, but do not need to spend money. Get creative and make it a fun experience!

Our Book Fair is coming, and we need help! Please consider giving of your time and efforts. Click on the Sign-up Genius link to sign up to help with the Book Fair, Monday, May 19 to Friday, May 23.

Hey Cougar Families!

We're in the final stretch of school! It's hard to even believe!

This week, we start Staff Appreciation Week (May 5-9)! Our PTA is providing a full breakfast or lunch to our Cougar staff every day this week. If you'd like to make a donation to help offset these costs, we'd truly appreciate it! Cash or checks can be dropped off in the office and will be applied directly to spoiling our incredible Crestview team!

We are still in need of a Fundraising Guru to take a leadership role on our PTA for next year! If you have ideas, are creative, or think you might know someone right for the position, we'd love to talk to you about it!

Be sure to keep up with all that PTA is doing by following our social pages on

Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/crestview.simi.cougars) and

Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/crestviewelementarypta/) for all of the latest updates!

Until next week,

Jen Hooper
