Summer 2017 PTO Meeting

There is no summer respite for PTO, folks. This Thursday (6/22) we are moving our PTO stuff from East Heights to the new digs. If you have a van or truck and can help, it would be much appreciated. Meet at 4:30pm at East Heights, and we can do a quick and easy move. Let us know!

Following that, we are also having our summer meeting at 6pm on Thursday (6/22) at The White Schoolhouse, 1510 N 3rd St, in North Lawrence (thank you Jennifer Roth). We will begin to map out our many PTO events for 2017-2018. Anyone and everyone who wishes to attend and be a bigger part of our exciting first year back at Pinckney is encouraged to attend. Childcare and pizza will be provided.

PTO Meeting, Monday, May 8th 5:30!

Hey, the last Pinckney PTO Meeting of the 2016-2017 school year is this evening at 5:30pm at East Heights in Room 28. This is the meeting where we establish the PTO Board for 2017-2018. If you’ve been interested in getting more involved in your neighborhood school, next year, with our arrival at the newly renovated school, is a prime opportunity to do so. We encourage anyone interested to attend tonight, especially parents/guardians of incoming Kindergarteners!

(If you are interested in being on the board but cannot make the meeting or if you have any other questions, please email me at pantherparents@gmail.com)

Street Dance Help Needed!

Hey all! So our last (and some say best) PTO event of the year is in a few weeks- the Pinckney Street Dance – on Saturday, May 6th, from 5:30-7:30pm at East Heights. As usual, we need Pinckney Parent/Guardian Power to make these events go. I just signed up for a slot to help out and, if you have not already, I would ask that you consider helping as well! Thanks in advance! http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0d49adad28a5ff2-street2

Really Big Sale Sat. Feb 18th

We’ll tell you a secret. In order to commemorate our new start at our revitalized school building next year, your Pinckney PTO is planning on providing a free “Back To The Future” (get it?) themed t-shirt to EVERY Pinckney student. The cost to do this is $1,000+. PTO earns ALL of our funding primarily through 2 events: running parking at the KU Rowing Regatta (Oct.) and our Really Big Sale (March.). We were lucky enough to get outside volunteers for parking, meaning we didn’t have to have Pinckney parent volunteers. But we don’t have outside volunteers for The Really Big Sale. This one is on us, so we need your help. Just 2 hours of your time on either Friday or Saturday. We’ve ONLY got 7 days left and lots of open slots. Thanks in advance!
Donations: Also, if you or anyone you kno w have items you would like to donate to the sale, here are the remaining drop-off times. The storage containers are behind the school at 1430 Haskell this year.
o Feb. 15th 5-6pm
o Feb. 16th 7-8pm
o Feb. 17th ALL DAY

You will have loads of help and access to the braintrust of someone who has organized it previously, but we just need one awesome person to take the helm of this important (and extremely popular) PTO event. Please let me know in the comments below or, alternatively, you can email me at pantherparents@gmail.com! Thank you!
