<p class=MsoNormal>Hi Parents!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The next meeting of the Moscow Junior High PST will take
place on Tuesday, May 5 at 7:15 am in room 216. We’d love to see
you there! The minutes from our April meeting are reprinted at the bottom
of this email (thanks to Karen Jennings for taking great minutes all year!).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Here is note from Aleisa Barber, who has done a terrific job
coordinating this year’s teacher appreciation events:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Dear Parents,<br>
<br>
Next week, May 4th - 8th, is Staff Appreciation Week at the Junior High. We
hope you and your child will join with the Parent Support Team in thanking all
the wonderful people who work at MJHS! It really takes a lot of people to make
a great school and our children come in contact with many caring people every
day! We are planning a few little surprises, but the main things will be treats
in the work room and notes from parents and students.<br>
<br>
<b>Treat Days<br>
</b>We are planning a couple of special days for the staff next week and we are
hoping you will participate by sending in treats or other items on <b>Tuesday,
May 5th or Thursday, May 7th</b>. Since there are approximately 80 staff
members, we will need a lot of different items for both days. If you would be
willing to contribute something, please e-mail me <b><a
href="mailto:aleisa@turbonet.com">aleisa@turbonet.com</a></b> or call me at
882-4434 to let me know what you would like to bring so I can be sure we will
have enough food. We plan to set up in the morning around 8:00am and will leave
the items out for the staff to enjoy during their planning or lunch times. Some
suggested items are listed below, but feel free to come up with other items as
the staff likes everything. We are in need of some store bought items as well,
so if you don't have time to bake, perhaps you would be willing to send a store
bought item.<br>
<br>
Possible donations:<br>
meat/cheese trays<br>
mini sandwiches<br>
salads: green salads, pasta salads, taco salads, other salads<br>
baked goods: cookies, bars, brownies, cakes, etc. <br>
fruit trays<br>
veggie trays with dip (The staff really likes veggies.)- Store bought is fine.<br>
snack items: chips, salsa, crackers and cheese, etc.<br>
drinks: cans of soda, bottled water<br>
paper goods: napkins, plastic silverware<br>
balloon bouquet with thank you balloons for a center piece<br>
<br>
You may bring your items to the teacher work room when you drop off your child
in the morning on May 5th or May 7th or you may bring them later in the day to
help replenish our table. To get to the workroom, go in the front door, turn
left, go around the first corner you come to on the right side of the hall and
enter the work room. Please use disposable plates or be sure to write your name
and phone number on any containers. Feel free to include a small note or card
with your name on it if you want to let the teachers know you provided the
item.<br>
<br>
<b>Thank You Cards/Notes<br>
</b>We thought it would be nice to have some cards/notes for the staff to read
throughout the week. Please consider writing and/or having your MJHS student
write a note letting the staff know something you appreciate about the junior
high. We will put the notes out for everyone to read next week. I will place an
envelope in the office so you can have your student drop off the notes in the
office or if you prefer, you can e-mail your note to me and I will print it and
take over to the school next week.<br>
<br>
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to our Staff Appreciation days this
year! I wish I could tell you how much it means to the staff when we have our
special appreciation days. They really, really appreciate all the thought and
effort everyone puts into the things they send to school! If you have any
questions, please feel free to call or e-mail me.<br>
<br>
