PICTURE DAY OCTOBER 12th

Picture day is next week! Get ready to dress your little ones up, untangle their hair and get ready for Picture Day. This year photos will be taken inside the school building so there’s no need to be concerned if there’s foul or cold weather.

In the event that your child misses picture day or forgets to smile a make up day will be held on November 17th.

We also need a few volunteers to help with managing the students during the photo sessions so please consider volunteering here.

HEY, BOO!

Boo Bash is almost here!

Spooky Saturday, October 22, 2022 - 3pm-7pm

Here’s how to help us make this a monster success:

SKIP THE LINE: Pre-order tickets and tees in advance until 10/19. Or grab yours at the door!

HELP US HELP YOU: We’re petrified of being understaffed! Please sign up for a volunteer shift or recruit your local high school kid in need of community service hours.

SWEETEN THE DEAL: Lend a helping hand by dropping off homemade or store-bought cupcakes, candy, and cookies (oh, my!) for our Boo Bash bake sale on Saturday, 10/22 from 8:30am-3pm.

Remember: The funds from Boo Bash help ensure that your little ghouls and goblins continue to benefit from all the amazing PTA-sponsored offerings at 154.

So, join us. It’ll be a scream!

PS 154 Book Market

We are excited to announce a new project! Building off the success off our ‘new-to-you” book exchanges over the last couple of years, the PS154 Book market will be permanently housed on the MMR, ad will be stocked with gently-used books donated by families. Students will take class trips to the Book Market, and will be able to choose a book to keep. We need your help!

Help stock our shelves! Donate books in good condition by bringing them to the MMR stage between 8:00 and 8:30 on Monday mornings. Boxes/bags of books should be clearly labeled “Book Market”.

Help organize books! Sign up to volunteer to sort label and shelve books. Email Sabrina Baronberg!

Sponsor a class visit! Stay tuned for info on sponsoring a class visit to the Book Market.
