Pride! Respect! Responsibility! Pine Ridge PTO Newsletter March 19, 2019 Hi Ranger Families! March has been such a fun month so far! It was great seeing so many of you at Carnival. Huge thanks to all the teachers and volunteers who helped make that day run so smoothly. The kids also enjoyed their day with author Kelly DiPucchio last week. Your support makes it possible to bring these experiences to Pine Ridge. Thank you! One of my favorite events is here...Book Swap! If you haven’t yet sent in your “old” books (up to 10) to trade for “new” ones, you can send them in until tomorrow morning at the very latest. Make sure they are in a bag labeled with your student’s name and their teacher’s name so the swap tickets get to the correct person. Then after Spring Break, our spring Scholastic Book Fair runs April 15-19. Hooray for books and reading!! Enjoy your Spring Break! Warmly, Britt Metzger PTO President Current Volunteer Opportunities: Book Swap : We still need help this week with book swap. Wednesday is set up and Thursday/Friday are swap days. Book swap - sign up genius PTO Board Members : Our current board has several parents of 4th grade students and we need new board members for next school year. We also have an open position/shadow for the remainder of this year. Please contact Britt Metzger,
