Derby’s Best Mustang Night at the Races was a true success and a wonderful night was had by all. The food, drinks and conversations were flowing all night long. The raffle baskets were absolutely incredible. Thank you to all the parents who generously made donations to create the spectacular baskets. Thank you to all who volunteered, and to everyone who came out to support our school. The success of this fundraiser goes towards providing funds for our children’s education, so we are truly blessed! Scholastic PTO Book Fair Start your Christmas shopping at the Scholastic Book Fair at our school the week after Thanksgiving. The Fair will be held in the school library Monday, November 27th to Saturday, December 2nd from 9:00 am - 3:30 pm. Parents are welcome to shop during those times, and children will be shopping on their regular library day. The book fair will also be open during the craft fair for anyone else who would like to shop. Students may preview books for sale and create and print a wish list to bring with them when they shop at http://www.scholastic.com/bf/ stalbertgreatschool5 . Also, we are looking for volunteers to help with the Book Fair. The signup genius can be found at the PTO section of the school’s website. Box Top Update We sent out 16,300 box Tops one Wednesday in October. All those Box Tops earned the school $1,630. We will continue collecting box tops throughout the year by sending home collection sheets each month to help keep them organized and also to track them for when we have another pop up Box Top Competition. Thank you for your continued support! 1 SAVE THE DATES NOV 27TH - DEC 2ND: Book Fair DEC 2ND: Craft Fair DEC 9TH: Breakfast with Santa DEC 11th - 15th Santa Shop JAN 20TH Father-Daughter Dance MARCH 10TH St. Patrick’s Day Raffle & Auction MARCH 24TH Mother-Son Night A Complete Listing of all PTO Events can be found at school.saint-albert.org NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2017 EDITION PTO Newsletter
