Kaufman Elementary PTO

 The Peppermint Village Holiday Store will be next week, December 5^th-8^th. This is a place where children can buy inexpensive items for the people on their holiday shopping list. Adult volunteers help the kids make their purchases and bag the items. We need many volunteers for a successful store!! Please sign up if you can. Your help is greatly appreciated! http://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e084aaba729ab9-peppermint1

 PTO will be catering an appreciation luncheon for the teachers and staff on Tuesday, December 13th.  We are asking for donations of homemade or store bought desserts to complete the meal.  Donated items will need to be delivered to the school no later than 10:00 that Tuesday morning.

We would also like to have parents volunteer to work lunch duty so that our teachers and staff can eat lunch together.  This entails walking around the cafeteria and monitoring students during their lunch time and helping them open items as needed. http://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e084aaba729ab9-teacher5

 Yearbooks are on sale for $30 until Dec. 31st at Balfour.com. After the 31st, the price will increase to $35. Yearbook dedications/ads can also be designed at the Balfour website. This year the yearbook will include QR codes. These QR codes will link to videos of the grade level programs.

Submit photos to the yearbook! Visit images.balfour.com to upload from your computer. Use project number 718770 and password Kaufman.  You can also search for the “Balfour Image Share” app in your app marketplace to share pictures from your phone.

  Several classes are close to the mark.  Keep sending in Box Tops.  Make sure to grab Box Tops from relatives during the holidays. When you are at school check out the Box Tops poster board in the cafeteria to see how your class is doing.
