Polaris PTO Newsletter: A biweekly update brought to you by the Polaris Elementary Parent Teacher Organization
Polaris PTO News - July 19, 2024

We hope you have all been enjoying wonderful a summer filled with family and fun. As we move toward the final weeks of summer and begin looking forward to the new school year, the PTO is excited to announce a new fundraising campaign based on parent survey responses, final grade-level meetups, and other opportunities to get involved in the Polaris community. Please read on to learn more, and feel free to reply to this email with any questions.

Warmly,

The Polaris PTO
You asked, The PTO heard you. One and Done Family Donation. Donate now and check it off your list for the rest of the year. Help us focus more on community and less on fundraising.
Participate in the Polaris PTO NPR-style fundraising campaign!

$700 per student fills the gap by covering the cost of a full-time social worker, paras, electives, teacher appreciation, & more!

When you donate all at once:

  • You can opt out of fundraising emails and won’t need to hedge your giving throughout the year!
  • Each collective goal we hit unlocks school-wide benefits and a shift to community-first events!
