The Power of Mindset: A Student Perspective 

Once in awhile we will share a blog post written by a "guest blogger" or a post we have found that aligns with our theme for the week. This week, we are sharing a student's journey to understand growth mindset. She writes about how adopting a growth mindset impacted her life and her outlook on her education.

We are counting down the days until our "Midnight in Paris" Adult Social/Silent Auction!  This is our biggest fundraiser and supports our PTO events for the next two years. 

 

The event is on March 10^th at 7 pm and will be at The Crowne Plaza in Burr Ridge.  Tickets for this event are $45.00 per person and our split the pot raffle tickets are $50.00 each.  Anyone can buy them and winner does not need to be present, so feel free to split them with family and friends!

 

While there are many of us that are out trying to get donations from businesses, we also count on the great donations we have received from our Pleasantdale community.  In the past we have received sports tickets, memorabilia, gift cards and wine/liquor as well as donations from family businesses.  We are grateful for any donations, so if you have something I didn't mention we are happy to incorporate it into our silent auction baskets.  As I had mentioned before, this fundraiser supports all PTO events and end of the year picnics for the next two years as well as many programs within the school. 

 

We truly hope to see you all there!  You can purchase tickets from any PTO Board Member or go to www.PleasantdalePTO.com to purchase tickets online.
