By-Laws
At the May general meeting, amendments to the by-laws were presented and approved. The by-laws are available for viewing on our website.
Earth Day
We hope everyone is enjoying the flower your children planted in honor of Earth Day. In a tradition that has gone on for many years, the children at both schools planted marigolds provided by the PTO. The plantings took place on April 24th and 25th. Thanks to those who helped with the plantings!
School Board Minutes
We apologize for not getting the school board minutes out to people like we had planned. We had problems getting a system in place to receive the minutes in a timely fashion. The good news is that the minutes are now on the school district web site at http://www.octorara.k12.pa.us/minutes.php.

Field Day
Field Day will be held on Wed., June 4, 2003 at the Primary Learning Center. It will be held on Friday, June 6, 2003 at the Elementary School. Volunteers are needed on both dates to help with the field day activities. It’s a great time!
Book Fair
Once again, the PTO sponsored a ‘Buy One, Get One Free’ Scholastic Book sale for the spring. This is always a favorite of the kids (and parents). Over 1,000 books were gotten free, with the purchase of another book. That’s a lot of reading for the summer! Look for our regular book fair in the fall!
Family Programs Thanks to Cindy Barker for chairing Family Programs this year. There were two successful programs this spring. The first was Family Bingo on March 7, 2003. There were 280 participants with 250 cans of food being donated to the Parkesburg Food Cupboard. On March 4, 2003, Eric Paul, Magician, entertained a crowd of enthusiastic children with his tricks. After the show, the children were treated to balloon art. |
