If you haven’t yet signed up for the PTA Blog, I’d like to encourage you to do so. This is a terrific resource for learning about Haigh events and to find opportunities to support our school. I recently attended one of our PTA meetings. I discovered it’s a wonderful way to connect with other parents and to touch base with some of the leadership that serves our school community.

I’ve copied the PTA page for November for your convenience. Please note that the Book Fair for our class visit is scheduled for Monday morning at 10:20. Students will browse the sale and can make purchases on that day. Students will also be allowed to go to the book fair for purchases only throughout the week. Browsing will be limited to Monday. I will make sure students record book wishes in their planners for you to review .
November Updates
The year is already flying by. I can’t believe November is already here. This month is packed with events. This post is a bit longer than usual, so please read all of it for important PTA news and updates.
- We have the results of the Box Tops contest. In first place with just over $84 raised is Mrs. Izbicki’s Class. They won the pizza party. And in second place with just over $55 raised is Mrs. Lozon’s class. They won the ice cream party. We had a great response for this contest. In total we collected 3,228 box tops. We raised in total with the box tops and dimes $550. Keep saving those box tops, there will be another contest in February and then again in June. The prizes have not been determined yet, but I am sure the kids will love them!
- The Halloween Parade is scheduled for Wednesday around 2:30pm. A HUGE THANK YOU to those families that donated items for the treat bags for the parade. The Haigh Families are the Best!!
- The Election Day Bake Sale is happening on November 6th. We are collecting baked goods to be sold during the elections. Just to clarify, we are taking any donations. There is no sign up for the baked goods, because we will take whatever you are willing to donate. All you need to do is drop off the baked items on Monday November 5th. There is a sign up if you are able to spend a couple of hours at the sale to help set up, sell and breakdown. If you are not able to donate, maybe you can help out at the sale for a couple of hours? Any help you can give will be appreciated.
- The Book Fair is here! November 5th thru 9th. Our Book Fair is always a huge hit with the students. If you are not able to stop by the book fair with your child’s class, don’t worry we have family day during the elections and family night during conferences on Thursday. We do need a lot of volunteers to make it a success, so please click the link above in order to sign up.
- The Savory Foods Fundraiser is ending on November 7th. Please get your orders in on time. The cookies are absolutely delicious and are the same cookies the PTA passes out at Open House every year. They are great to have in your freezer for the holidays. You can always have fresh cookies for when friends and family come visit!
- Our next PTA Meeting will be on November 14th at 6pm in the Library. Please come to the meetings in order to stay informed in all of the schools happenings.
- School Store, Friday, November 16th during lunch.
