It's Box Tops Time!

2/20/2017 1:17 pm

It's time to turn in your Box Tops. Our submission this fall provided our school PTA $924!

Look for a collection sheet to paste them on in your Tuesday folder. You can also put them in marked bags of 25 or 50, or simply turn them in and we will count them for you. Extra collection sheets are available outside of the office at school.

Please turn them into your teachers or drop them in the "Community Partners" folder of the PTA file box (outside of the school office).

The class with the most Box Tops turned in for the Spring Semester will receive a Pizza party!

It’s Time!!! “Donut” forget to bring in your books...

The PWE Used Book Drive is THIS WEEK (January 23rd - 27th). Bring the books you plan to donate to school by this Friday.

Each student who donates at least one book will receive a bookmark and one free book at the Used Book Fair held February 15th - 19th.
Each class donating 75 books or more will get to wear pajamas to school one day.
The teacher from any class donating at least 100 books will get to “fill a bag” of books prior to the start of the sale.
The class with the most books donated will earn a special treat… think DONUTS!

The monies collected at the sale support the 2017 RISD Council of PTAs, which benefits the Dr. J.J. Pearce scholarship for RISD high school seniors and teachers. PWE also receives a portion of the proceeds.

Congratulations to Prestonwood Elementary School on a successful canned food drive! Your food drive raised a total of 2,800 pounds which will provide access to 2,333 meals for chronically hungry children, families and seniors in need in North Texas!

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude for your efforts. Your participation and hard work in the struggle against hunger is commendable and greatly appreciated by more people than you may ever know.

If you, or anyone you know, should want to find other ways to continue in the fight against hunger, please feel free to view Volunteer Opportunities. You may also find some fun and exciting ways to help in the fight against hunger by following the Calendar of Events and Campaigns.

It is always a humble pleasure to work with such dedicated individuals in pursuit of solving the far too urgent problem of food insecurity. I look forward to staying in touch and working with you in the future to continue the fight against hunger in our community.
