Hello, Just a reminder that tonight is that last PTA Meeting for the year!  Please join us in the cafeteria at 7:00p.m. We will be talking about the Ice Cream Social, Field Day and Elections will be held!

Today, Monday @ 4:00 is a meeting for those of you interested in planning/organizing the 5th grade promotion ceremony. The meeting will start in the lobby and then move into the teacher’s lounge. Please let Mrs. Courtright or Mr. David know what the plans are so we can help if needed.

Attention Duvall families as of the end of April ALL DuVall families need to sign up again with the Kroger Community Rewards program.  This is IMPORTANT!  Last year we earned more than $1,000 by just shopping like we normally do. Please sign up your family and encourage one other friend or family member to do so also.  Please see the note from Kroger below:
As a reminder the members of your organization will need to re-enroll to continue earning in the Kroger Community Rewards Program.

When a person enrolls or re-enrolls in April their earnings (for the charity) will start MAY 1^st 2013.  Any member who enrolled before April 1, 2013 must re-enroll to continue earning.

 All participants must sign up for the program in order to continue earning funds for your group during 2013-2014.

It’s easy for your members to enroll or re-enroll in Kroger Community Rewards. They can visit www.krogercommunityrewards.com, click on “Michigan” and click on “Enroll.” All participants must have a valid online account at Kroger.com and must sign up online to participate.
