A message from the Morrisville PTO

We received an email from the PTO asking us to help get the word out about some upcoming events and meetings.

-On Monday 1/11 the monthly meeting will be held in the Grandview Cafeteria at 7pm. The focus for this meeting will be discussing the creation of the K-5 yearbook. The meeting is open to all parents and teachers of grades K-8, and is also open to anyone wishing to place an ad in the yearbook. The cost of the ad is $25 for a business card sized ad. The proceeds from the advertisements will offset some of the cost of the yearbooks, so that they can be offered $15.00 for the children.

-On Thursday 1/14 from 6:30 to 8pm in the LGI room of the IS/HS the Morrisville PTO and 21st Century Grants is sponsoring a "Sane Parenting Workshop" The workshop will be hosted by Dr. Shanken-Kaye. From the flyer we received: "Participants will learn how to cope with the many everyday stresses of family life, as well as how to cope with the really strange things that sometimes occur." The workshop focuses on parents of pre-K through 6th graders, but is open to the community.

The Morrisville PTO is the organization that sponsors all assemblies, book fairs, holiday shops, field day events, and of course the brand new school store that launched earlier this year at Grandview(the next date for the school store is 1/15 during lunchtime.
