Parent Newsletter for Banyan Elementary School - 5/3/24
Principal's Pen
We are so excited to see everyone for our 30th Anniversary celebration tomorrow. The weather looks great and our Board of Trustees has done a wonderful job in planning this event. The event will be located in the back of the building. It's going to be a wonderful time to celebrate the accomplishments of our Banyan students throughout the years!
I wanted to officially thank out PTO for the wonderful events they have planned for next week to celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week. They always do a great job in letting our staff know how special they truly are.
And a special shout out to our nurses - Ms. Diane and Ms. Lisa - for their special day on Wednesday!
NJSLA (state testing) will be taking place the week of May 6th for grades 3-8. Make-ups will be the week of May 13th. If you have questions please contact Mrs. Emily Perkins.
I've posted several resources/forms below the PTO information shared with me during the week that you might find interesting or helpful as a family. Make sure to click on the button, or review the link for more information.
Banyan PTO Update
We're buzzing with excitement about a hive of activity for Banyan staff to feel like Queen and King Bees during Teacher Appreciation Week - May 6-10
Most of the cost of what we'll do for Banyan staff will be covered by the money already raised by YOU to the Banyan PTO over the year, so thank you, but there are a few options to help pitch in by bringing or making something, or setting up. (Help also needed to decorate on Saturday 5/4.) To sign up: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30E0F49ABA72BABFA7-49104021-teacher
Monday: Breakfast
Tuesday: Coffee bar restock
Wednesday: Lunch
Thursday: Letters to teachers - We'll be printing out letters from you (and/or your students) and putting them in teachers' mailboxes. Option 1: Print out the attached PDF - as many copies as you need - and your student can write a message. Return to Banyan to Donna. Option 2: Click here for you/your student/you both together to fill out a form and we'll print those sentiments into letters. DEADLINE: Monday May 6.
