PTO NEWS & NOTES
Walking Program
The Walking Program began its Spring session and students are working hard to meet their fitness goals! Because of its overwhelming popularity, our Walking Program committee is seeking a few more volunteers to help out during recess. This is a great opportunity to get involved with minimal commitment. If you are interested, please use this link to sign up. Questions? Contact Kathy Mercurio (kathymercurio@fuse.net) or Michelle Rowland. (mrowland789@gmail.com).
Green Team News
Thank you for bringing in your plastic lids and caps! We were so impressed with how many lids were turned in! We are using them to create a beautiful mosaic for Earth Day, which will be in the display case at the entrance to the school.
To celebrate Earth Day, we will be having a Waste Less Lunch on Friday, April 21st. If you pack your lunch on this day, please pack in a reusable lunch box with reusable containers and a refillable bottle. You can pack a cloth napkin or even just use your sleeve. If you pack an entirely waste-free lunch (everything in your lunch is either compostable, reusable, or recyclable and there's no trash at all), you will receive a prize at lunch! Remember, aluminum foil, plastic baggies, plastic straw wrappers, and yogurt pouches all count as trash! We will also be asking trivia questions and giving out prizes to help celebrate Earth Day.
Please contact Kara at karaj.willis@gmail.com or Shana at shanabecca@gmail.com if you have any questions. Thank you for your help, Montgomery! GO GREEN and gold!
