Walden PTO Weekly

HAPPENING NOW
LAST CHANCE TO PURCHASE WALDEN YEARBOOK
To purchase a yearbook, please click HERE.
LAST DAY TO ORDER: Friday, March, 22.
To check if you've already purchased a yearbook at the beginning of the year, please review your order history on the website/app. The Walden website is set up so that you can only purchase one yearbook per student.
All purchased yearbooks will be labeled with your child's name and delivered to their class the last week of school. Please note, the PTO has volunteer yearbook photographers taking photos at each class party, PTO events, photo day, and various days throughout the year. This is a way for all students to be included in the yearbook. Therefore, we do not accept personal photo submissions for the yearbook.
If you have any questions, please email WaldenElementaryYearbook@gmail.com.
SPRING SPIRIT WEAR
Spring into school with the latest Walden Wear apparel! Check out the latest designs, grab a pair of shorts for the warm weather coming soon, or add a school hat to your collection! Sale runs 3/1-3/15 and will be delivered after spring break! Please contact Laura Nessel at lro1385@gmail.com or Erin Koss at erin.l.koss@gmail.com with any questions.
PARENT VOLUNTEERS FOR THE LIBRARY
The library is looking for parent volunteers to help with ongoing tasks and projects. No classes will be present, so this will be a relatively quiet volunteer experience. Jobs will include book shelving, shelf reading to make sure books are in the right places, organization of Makerspace materials, and labeling of books. We appreciate any and all help! Any questions-contact Allie Zalay (allie.zalay@gmail.com).
