Family Movie night on 2/14 @ 5:45 doors  6 pm movie

Have a Valentine’s Day themed movie! We can do concessions and a cookie decorating project. We could get a pre-registration so that we have a headcount. We could also connect with Elementary Honor Society to help with cookie decorating. Gnomeo and Juliet. We will need cookies, frosting and sprinkles. Also knives and plates. Walmart sells the unfrosted sugar cookies.

Kelli mentioned the school board’s survey, they are working on deciding on the referendum items. PTO is willing to support and promote the referendum’s cause.
