Sumpter Info

Hang on, we're almost to the end of the school year!!!!  I wanted to pass on some information and volunteer opportunities to help us finish strong. So here we go...

 

Community FUNdraiser.  This was a huge success.  Thank all of you for contributing to the classroom baskets, buying raffle tickets and attending the event.  It looks like we will net close to $8000.  Thank you for your support.

 

Parent Club.  Our last meeting will by June 5th at 6:45pm (This is the first Tuesday of the month due to school being out the following week).  At this meeting we plan on reviewing the past year and setting priorities for the next year.  We will be discussing a contribution to the Battle Creek Parent Club and funding requests for classroom technology in addition to other items we have traditionally funded such as classroom funds, fieldtrips, and artists in residence. 

 

Yearbooks.  We are currently planning on selling Yearbooks before and after school from June 4th through June 8th.  We also plan to sell them at the school BBQ on June 6th.  Yearbooks will only be $5.00 this year.  Our Yearbook Committee did a great job this year so make sure you buy your copy before they are all gone.

 

June 6th is the school-sponsored BBQ.  I still need two more volunteers who might be able to help serve food from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm.  If you've always wanted to wear a hair net and gloves, this is your chance!  Please reply to me at plhurley@hotmail.com.

 

Important BBQ info:  We will begin selling BBQ tickets at 9:00 am.  Students will be able to use their lunch cards if they have them.  Sumpter Student price is $1.85.  Adults will NOT be able to use their students' lunch card to pay for the meal.  The adult price is $3.00.  Please try to bring exact change.

 

June 11th is Field Day (And the last day of school).  Mrs Morris needs lots and lots and lots of help for this fun event for our children.  There is a signup and more information at the front desk.  As with all volunteering at Sumpter, you will need to have a background check completed prior to volunteering.  Background check forms are available on the Parent Club board by the front desk.
