NEW! ONLINE Book Shopping still open! Thank you for making our school’s PTO Scholastic Book Fair the Best. Fair. Ever! As a direct result of your support and enthusiasm, we sold hundreds of books at our in person fair last Friday, September 12th. We raised over $1,644.59 for the Tonawanda PTO and accrued additional Scholastic rewards including $83.72 in “Share the Fair” donations. If your child missed out on the Fair (or already finished every new book), there’s still time to shop! Our Book Fair continues online through September 28th. Every online purchase during this window also directly benefits our school with 25% of sales going to our PTO. Click here to shop our school’s Fair online until September 28th: https://www.scholastic.com/bf/
NEW! Please return the Welcome to Tonawanda yard signs to the bin outside of our main entrance by next Friday, September 26th. We reuse these signs to welcome students and families each fall. Thank you for your help in returning the signs for next year!
NEW! Action- Needed! This is an ANNUAL task to complete! If you have not signed up for the PTO student directory, please sign up your family for the student directory using this link. The school is unable to provide information to other families, so this is your best route to be in the know with our PTO Room Parents, connect with Tonawanda families, arrange playdates, send invitations to school friends, etc. Please sign up by September 26, 2025 to be included.
NEW! Student Picture Retake and Make-Up Day on FRIDAY, September 26th! Even if you are not planning to purchase your child's school picture, we would like to have all students photographed to be included in our yearbook! A yearbook is included in any picture package or if you are not interested in ordering a school photo, you can order only a yearbook. Online order information is linked here: https://mortensen.
