Cossitt Friday Folder November 16, 2018
Welcome to your emailed Friday Folder. These flyers are also available on the  Cossitt PTC website .
Lunch Clubs!
The PTC is seeking parents to volunteer and supervise lunch clubs during the winter months.  Lunch clubs meet during each child's lunch recess block before or after they eat lunch.  Grades are combined.  Some materials will be provided, or students can bring favorites from home.  
Last year's offerings included Cards/Games and Open Art Studio.  
If you are interested in volunteering please email Tori D'Antonio at toridantonio@gmail.com for more information.

Cossitt Book Clubs
Cossitt Book Club sign-ups are coming soon!  A reminder that Book Club is open to all 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 6th graders, and all levels of readers are encouraged to join. The program will be led by parent volunteers once a week for 7 weeks during lunch hour starting the week of January 28. Think about volunteering for your child's group, it is a great way to connect during the school day!

PIMA fundraisers
Do you plan to purchase poinsettia plants this season? Looking for a secret Santa gift or stocking stuffers?
   
Please consider supporting our 600+ band and orchestra musicians by purchasing them from PIMA. The red premium poinsettias are lush and 15" tall wrapped in gold foil.  They are locally supplied through Phillips Flowers in LaGrange Park. They only cost $20 and make great gifts!
 
Click here to order on-line with a PayPal option.
Click here for an order form to send in with payment to Park Jr. High, Attn: PIMA
 
 
Along with the poinsettias, our 7th and 8th grade band and orchestra members will be selling Yankee Candle items online to help pay for their spring trip to Louisville, KY!
 
All orders are web only and will be delivered directly to the purchaser. 
 
Go to www.yankeecandlefundraising.com (or click here to take you directly to our oracle) and place your order under GR OUP #999985204 (PIMA).
 
 If you want to support band or orche stra students going on the trip, first confirm with them that they are going and then add their name in the Seller Name field so they get credit. It's that easy!
