Great Ideas Grants
Do you have a great idea? The Great ideas Grant program is an opportunity for Wines students, parents, and staff to turn a great idea into a funded program to benefit the Wines community! The grant approval committee meets twice a year to vote on applications. Submissions are now accepted online only. The final deadline for this school year is March 1st.
The links for the Adult and Child application can be found on the Wines PTO website: winespto.github.io. Don’t let a great idea go to waste! Submit now! Submit several! We look forward to hearing from you. Contact: Sumi Sood – sumi.sood1@gmail.com
Wines Auction: Volunteers Needed
The Wines Auction is right around the corner on March 21st. We are in need of volunteers to make this a great event. Please go to https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0E4BA5A929AA8-wines1 if you can help out.
Disability Awareness Workshop - Still Need Volunteers!!
Our annual Disability Awareness Workshop is coming up next month. It will be on Wednesday, March 18. This is a wonderful event that gives our 4th grade students (and volunteers too!) an understanding of the challenges faced by individuals with disabilities as well as the innovative solutions they have created.
We're in need of parent volunteers to help out with this event. You do not have to be a parent of a 4th grader to volunteer!
To volunteer, click here for the online sign up.
Box Tops: Earn Money for Our School
Parents, you can continue to help Wines earn money all year long through the Box Tops for Education program, and all you need is your smartphone! Simply download the Box Tops for Education app and use it to scan your grocery receipt within 14 days of purchase. The app automatically identifies any Box Top earnings and instantly credits them to our school. While you can continue to clip Box Top labels from participating products and send them to school, the traditional Box Top clips are being phased out from production. So, to help our school earn the most money possible, please get the app and scan those receipts! For more information, visit www.btfe.com.
Generosity Project Bags
Just a reminder that if your family is participating in filling bags from the Generosity Project to support House by the side of the Road, the bags are being collected tomorrow. Bins are located in the front vestibule. If you picked up a bag at Parent Involvement Day but were not able to fill it, please return the bag to the same bin and it will be used for future projects.
That’s all for this week!
David
