This is it! The last week before school starts. I hope you are getting your school gear together. I look forward to seeing everyone at Meet the Teacher on Tuesday!
Have a great week,

Tuesday: Meet the Teacher
Come meet your new teacher on Tuesday from 4-6pm. When you enter the school, be sure to pick up a passport to help guide you through your list of tasks, such as:
- Registering to be a Wake County volunteer. You can do this in your child's classroom.
- Meeting the specials teachers, Ms. Sutton (music), Mrs. Schwartz (art), Ms. Graves (PE), and Mrs. Wil (media/technology)
- Joining the PTA. Membership dues are only $6. Cash or check only.
- Buying school spirit wear. T-shirts are on sale for $5.
- Getting transportation information, such as bus routes and carpool numbers.
- Putting money on your child's lunch card.
After getting at least 4 signatures on your passport, turn it in at the PTA fair and your child will receive a small prize. (One prize per child.) Also, we will have raffles at 5:00 and 5:55 for a small Swifty Cougar key chain (an $8 value).
We are also looking for volunteers to help at the event. If you can help, sign up at http://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e094eafae2ca64-meettheteacher. Note: You must be a member of the PTA to handle money at the membership and spirit wear tables.
