PTA Updates and Reminders:
Thanks to all who joined us for Spring Fling! It was a great night and we enjoyed seeing so many families at the book fair and playing bingo!
This Week is Teacher Appreciation Week: May 6th-10th
PTA has planned a week of celebration to let our amazing Easley teachers know how much we value them!
See the below graphic for how you can help in addition to meals and treats being provided on Monday, Wednesday and Friday by the PTA. This information should have also come home with your child via a flyer on Friday.
A teacher appreciation packet will be coming home with your child. Postcards from the packet will be collected in the car line on Wednesday and Thursday.
Finally, if you volunteered to donate a gift basket, please drop it by the front office by Friday morning.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support of our teachers and staff!
Easley Night Out In: Nuvotaco on May 15th
Back by popular demand—Nuvotaco is partnering with PTA on a takeout fundraiser. Easley families are eligible to purchase a “quick pack” meal with additional add-ons as desired. Families can pick up their meals at either Easley or Aldersgate between 5 and 6 pm on May 15th. Orders must be placed by noon on May 14th – and a pickup location must be specified when ordering. Please use this link to order. NuvoTaco will donate $7.50 to the PTA for each “quick pack” ordered. Our past experience is that each order has a lot of food and has generally lasted most families more than a single meal.
