Busy week!

Don't forget, we've got two big things going on this week:

Family Math and Reading Night: Thursday, April 15th at 6:30 p.m.  Fun for the whole family with a special "Adventures in Reading" activity especially for 2nd and 3rd graders!

Cloverdale Craft Fair:  Saturday, April 17th from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.  There will be a wide variety of things to buy, eat and even exchange (at the book exchange!  Bring books you're ready to part with and get "new" ones!).  Hope to see you there!

Just FYI, here is a link to the minutes of the last PTO meeting.  Everyone is always welcome to attend!

April PTO Minutes

Did you see those volunteer hours?  That's just for the months of January through March!  You amazing people blow me away!

We're trying something new for these last couple of months of the school year.  There will be a "Cloverdale Cowboys Classifieds" bulletin board inside the school with descriptions of jobs that need to be done throughout the school that volunteers could help with.  Look for that in the next couple of weeks.

If you have any questions just leave a comment and someone will get back to you.  Thanks!

Happy Spring!

It doesn't look very springy outside, but we're heading into the last two months of school!  Here are some things to look forward to:

Thursday, April 8th at 3:30 is the PTO meeting:  Everyone is welcome!  We're always looking for new ideas, so come and join the fun!

Thursday, April 15th at 6:30 p.m. is a family math and reading night.  Look for more info coming home this week.  The district received a Micron Math Fun d'Mentals activity kit through a grant that provides games and fun activities for parents and kids to do together to become more successful at math.

Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon:  end of April. . .look for more specifics to come!

Have you ever wanted to be more involved, or know someone who does, but you're reluctant to do it?  Here's a great article that explains just how much you are not only needed, but really wanted in our PTO:
