Mom or grandmother, Dad or grandfather, brother, sister and pet. The children will make crafts while the parents shop at the craft fair. The crafts will come home wrapped.

We will need a lot of volunteers.

Scrip – earned $2700 last year, $5000 the year before. Need a person to chair. Possibly leave off local business.

Have Cheryl Sanborn announce what the PTO does and that everything is voted on at the PTO meeting. If you want a say in what the money is spent on attend the PTO meetings. Give a list of thing the school would not have if it weren’t for the PTO.

PTO Meeting - October 4, 2007

 

Welcome

Thanks for the teacher support

Playground Maintenance:

Would like PTO to give school $1000 at the end of each year to maintain and upgrade the playgrounds. They got an estimate to fix the swings, slide and padding on one of the seat for $780. Voted to give $1000 now and $1000 at the end of the year, no one opposed. Any leftover money from the $1000 each year will go for new equipment for the playgrounds only.

Sally Foster:

Profit $8000 catalog, $400 Internet & $800 magazines

Family Portraits:

$15 sitting fee - 11x13 free – can order Christmas cards – will give envelopes.

Art Teacher:

The PTO Board assumed since we were not ask to subsidize the art teacher salary that it was not needed. Cheryl Sanborn assumed that we would do it each year. We now have a policy that each year the PTO will subsidize the art teacher salary. Approx. $3500. Voted and no one opposed.
