Support Your Favorite Programs with our Fall Fundraiser Art lessons with Museo. New books for the library. Popcorn Fridays. Movie nights. Eager Reader. Family Fun Night. Grants to teachers and staff to supplement curriculum and materials. These are just a few of the programs that help make Discovery such an exceptional school for our children. And did you know that these are all PTSA funded? Without your generous donations, the PTSA won’t be able to continue supporting these programs and more (STEM Fair! Staff Appreciation Week! The Art Show!), so next week we’ll be kicking off our Fall Fundraiser. More information will be coming home with your students next week, and as always, watch your inbox, and check your facebook and instagram feeds for details on our ONLY FUNDRAISER for the 2019-2020 school year. Your support will make all the difference! |

Get Your Young Artist Involved with Reflections
Every child has an inner artist, and Reflections is a National PTA art recognition program that helps students celebrate their creativity. By exploring their own thoughts, feelings and ideas, not only will students develop their artistic literacy, they’ll increase their confidence, and find a love for learning that helps them become more successful not only in school, but also in life. Encourage your Discovery Kindergarten through 5th Grade student to create an original work of art in response to the theme “LOOK WITHIN”. Students can submit their completed works of art in one (or all!) of six available categories. More information, including the submission requirements and entry packets can be found by clicking here. The deadline for Discovery student entries is Monday, November 4. For any questions on the Reflection program or entry process, please contact Irene Tham (imtham@yahoo.com). |
Volunteers Still Needed One of the best and easiest ways to make a difference at your child’s school is to volunteer! We now have co-chairs for Multicultural Night (thank you Gayathri D. and Radhika S.!), but there are still plenty of volunteer opportunities throughout the year, including:
