JFK PTO Updates

PTO News:

The JFK Microwave in the cafeteria for students was originally bought by the PTO, so when it broke a week ago, we replaced it with another commercial grade appliance.  Your PTO donations at work! 

 

PTO meeting minutes are on line.  You can check them out by going to our blog, jfkmspto.blogspot.com

Is your student interested in sports, writing, or art?  The after school program is a great way for your student to spend time with friends doing enrichment activities that are interesting and fun.  Openings are still available in all the classes except for cooking.   Information and registrations are available at the front office.

 

The JFK Holiday Fair is coming up.  Come to the After School Advisory and find out how you can help at the sale, which supports the After School Program activities.  Meeting is Wednesday, Oct 22, 5:00 in the JFK conference room.  Call Mrs. Clapp 587-1489 for further details on classes or the meeting.
