South Plainfield Grant School PTO

Yearbooks will be distributed on Monday to the students by your child’s homeroom teacher

5th grade will have a year book signing during 2nd period on Monday

6th grade will have a yearbook signing during 3rd period on Monday

If you have forgotten to purchase a book there is a very limited quantity left.

You can purchase online this weekend http://bit.ly/grantpto

Or you can send your child in with cash on Monday as the PTO will be present to distribute additional books as that will be the LAST day to purchase a book if inventory allows.

Thank you

Just a reminder that tomorrow is the 5th grade pool party.

The 6th grade party will be Thursday.

The weather forecast looks great for both days!

The PTO will providing lunch to students while at the pool party. Regular plain pizza as well as gluten free pizza will be available.

If you have any allergy concerns please reach out to Mrs. DelValle, our school nurse, to seek an alternative arrangement.

As noted previously, no cell phones are allowed at the pool, no floatation devices or water toys.

We look forward to two great days at the pool as we round out our school year.

Ok Grant Families here is a local fundraiser being done by our High School Music Boosters, the HS students have supported our Grant students during drama and our music program so let’s say we show them support in return 😁

A HUGE Thank you to all of the parents that came to help this week when we needed it most.

We appreciate you taking time to help the kids and us with ensuring this event went smoothly.

All baskets have been delivered to the respective Home Rooms and will be distributed during that time.

Unfortunately there was not enough time at the end of the school day to announce the names of the winners. There will be many surprised kids though tomorrow morning!

Thanks to all of the families that contributed monetarily as well as with items and baskets to add to our selection of prizes.

To watch the kids faces this week with surprise and awe for what they could possibly win was priceless.

Congratulations to all of the winners!!

Sincerely the Grant PTO 😁

Tomorrow is the last day for your children to purchase / drop their tickets during lunch. Please remind them that during lunch they need to come down to Gym2 - there are alot of students that have not claimed their presale tickets (teachers have reminded them) / nor dropped their free tickets that were distributed.

There are a total of 103 potential baskets for the students to win 😁
