KME PTO Blog Blast 1/17/2014

Happy Friday Everyone!! Just a few reminders from your KME PTO...

Remember, there is no school on Monday, January 20 due to the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. If you are in need of something to do, please consider going to Jump Stop Safari that day! Jump Stop Safari in Lebanon is offering an open play session for KME students and their families from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm. For every KME student that participates, they will donate $1 to our PTO. Please click on our "Events/Fundraisers" tab on the blog to get more information about this event.

Extravaganza Notes


Our Extravaganza is next month and we are working to get everything ready! Please remember to donate items to your child's classroom for our theme baskets. If you are unsure about your classroom's theme, please go to the "Events/Fundraisers" tab on our blog and look under the "Extravaganza" heading to find out. Also, we can always use more help with this event! If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Erin Deutsch at erin.springdot.com.

Kroger Rewards


As a reminder, please make sure that your Kroger Plus card is registered and linked to "Kings Mills Elementary PTO" so that we can continue to earn money for all of our school programs and events. Also, Kroger is featuring a "one-day-only" 4x Fuel Points for any gift card purchases made on Saturday, January 18 ONLY. Please consider purchasing any needed gift cards from Kroger that day -- to not only earn money for our school but to also earn many fuel points for you!

Wear Orange Day


January 21, 2014 is our "Wear Orange Day" to remember Sammy Reagan and to promote awareness of the Sammy Reagan Foundation which assists various community organizations. Please have your children join us to turn KME into a sea of orange!!
