Book Fair this week

The much anticipated, always celebrated Scholastic Book Fair is this week!

It will run Tuesday through Thursday morning.
You can shop online Monday, November 27th- Friday, December 1st at https://www.scholastic.com/bf/howardelementaryschool9
You can also set up a prepaid ewallet account for your child to shop with at the fair so you don’t have to send cash. Checks are also accepted, payable to Howard PTA. Parents are welcome to come and shop with their child during their designated class time-slot.

We are in need of volunteers to run the fair and allow students to have the best book fair experience. Please give some of your time if you are able, even an hour helps.

October PTA Meeting

Thank you to everyone that attended our meeting this morning. For those unable to attend, here is a summary of the meeting.

The financial budget for the year was reviewed and approved.

We discussed past events such as the Welcome Back Family Night and mentioned upcoming events including a donuts and cider sale on October 20th and the Howardeen Fall Bash on October 27th. We will send out more information soon as well as a signup genius.

We are still in need of some people to chair events and fundraisers. If you are interested, please contact any of our PTA board members.

As always, we appreciate your help and look forward to working together to make it a successful and memorable year for our children.

Welcome Back Howard Dragons!

Dear Howard Parents,

The Howard PTA Board welcomes you to Howard Elementary school for another memorable year of programs, events, and Howard school pride. As we head into a new school year, we would like to remind you of the importance of your volunteer hours and financial support of the PTA. Every year, the PTA provides funding for school events, classroom supplies, professional development, educational programs, library books, teacher appreciation week festivities, site improvements and many, many more. To maintain our support of these vital programs, we ask each family to make an annual tax-deductible donation to the PTA and also become a member. Every donation makes a difference and we are aiming for 100% participations by our families this year. We have so many fun things planned for our children in the coming months, but they cannot happen without your HELP.

For details about how to donate, sign up for chairing events, and get involved in the PTA please go online to sign up for membership at howard.memberhub.com or send us an email to howardpta17@gmail.com if you like to help chair an event. List of events for this year are available on the Howard blog: www.howardelementarypta.com .(please subscribe so we can stay connected).  Membership or Donation forms are also available in the office if you like to send in a check or cash.

Also Join us on Friday, September 25 from 1:30-3:00 for an Open House.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions, and we thank you for your support!
