The PTO has two events coming up, and they need your help! There were sign-ups in their January PTO newsletter, and they still have several time slots yet to fill. These events can’t happen without your help. The first event is the Spring Scholastic Book Fair, which is during conferences next week on Monday, February 6, and Thursday, February 9. If you can help, please sign up at: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0c44adad2ca3ff2-spring#/ The second event is Pizza Bingo on Friday, March 24, from 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm. The time commitment is minimal (30 minutes) and the jobs are very easy. Unfortunately, if we do not have enough volunteers, the event will be cancelled. If you can help, please sign up at: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0c44adad2ca3ff2-pizza#/
