HAPPY SUMMER!
It’s the last of school (bittersweet, we know) and we’re all eager to start our vacations, whatever form that takes (we’re exploring the non-vacation vacation — it’s a work in progress). The good news is, that the first step to that summer break is easy to do: order your Edukit and put school supplies out of your mind. The other news: there’s a deadline approaching this Friday! See below for details!
We’re also deep into planning a Fall Carnival to celebrate the eventual return to school. Please see the Save the Date below and mark your calendars, but after that…
Have a great summer, everyone. It’s been a wonderful year and we want to thank you for all of your contributions, participations, and feedback throughout the year. The PS154 families are the school and we have one of the best!
We’ll be in touch when things arise about which you need to be informed. Until then, order your Edukit and enjoy your summer! (Did I mention the Edukit?)
EDUKIT DEADLINE FAST APPROACHING!
deadline for edukit orders TO BE DELIVERED TO SCHOOL IS FRIDAY!
The PTA of PS 154 offers the EduKit program as a convenient option for busy families to order school supplies for the 2023/2024 year. EduKits include the supplies approved by our school.
Order TODAY at www.edukitinc.com
Order By June 30th for best pricing and free delivery to the school.
For each grade, except kindergarten, there are two kit options. There is a student kit and a household kit. The student kit includes the supplies used by the student. The household kit contains items shared in the classroom and to keep the classroom clean. To see a complete list of items included in each kit, go to edukitinc.com.
If you choose NOT to purchase the household kit, please send the items, with your student, during the first two weeks of school.
Your child’s EduKit will be in your student’s classroom on the first day of school.
Extended ordering is available July 1 through August 1 for a $12.95 additional fee and will be delivered to your home shortly before school begins.
Find the ordering guide and pricing list here.
FALL CARNIVAL - SAVE THE DATE
WE’RE TURNING UP THE FUN ON BACK-TO-SCHOOL
Join us as we kick off the new school year with a Fall Carnival on Saturday, September 23rd from 12pm-5pm. It’s going to be HUGE. There will be tons of fun activities for kids, families, and friends including music, bounce houses, rides, games, and treats! (If we can convince anyone to sit in it, maybe a dunk tank?) You won’t want to miss it.
To make this event a success, we need volunteers. A LOT of volunteers. Please reach out to PTA or grace.ciaccia@gmail.com if you’re interested in planning or volunteering on the day of the event.
Reminder: ALL proceeds from the event go directly to the PTA to help fund in-school enrichments (like music and chess!), assemblies (more author visits!), recess coaches, after-school opportunities and all the amazing things you help the PTA make possible for our kids.
