Blythe Park PTA Happenings |
|
Maycember Madness is upon us! And hey, if we're struggling, let's think about those teachers as they make it through the last month (!!!) of school! Let's treat them like the First Class superhumans they are during Teacher Appreciation Week. You can help by donating funds or stocking the staff lounge. On Tuesday, May 5, we are asking STUDENTS to wear your teacher’s favorite color or gift them their favorite snack or beverage and send them a postcard. There will also be an opportunity for students to fill out a postcard during lunch on April 30. |

It's chaos out there, so take dinner making off your plate on Thursday. Dine at Portillo's Forest Park on Thursday, April 30 from 5pm-8pm to send 20% of proceeds back to the PTA! Show the flyer or use online code PORTILLOS12. Get your chocolate cake shake on while supporting our cause! |
