Burbank PTA Annual Appeal Fundraising Efforts Start Soon!The Burbank PTA (Parent Teach Association) has a long-standing tradition of funding meaningful opportunities for our community, such as classroom enrichments, field trips, teacher grants and community events such as the Fall Social, Lights The Way and STEM Night, just to name a few. Additionally, this year will be a big one for Burbank with TWO grades moving on in June (3rd and 4th grade), and the PTA historically has always provided funding for special ceremonies and activities so the need for adequate funding is critical. This year, we will be making a big push to reach our annual fundraising goal early so we can continue to fund this important work for the remainder of the school year.
If you'd like more information on how you can help, whether it's a monetary donation or a donation of your time to volunteer to support the PTA's mission, the PTA will have an information table at Lights The Way with some amazing raffle items to kick things off our fundraising efforts. Additionally, you can always email the Burbank PTA at maryleeburbankpta@gmail.com
The PTA is still looking for volunteers to help coordinate classroom enrichments AND teacher appreciation efforts! The time commitment is minimal for both roles, so you are interested in helping out please email the Burbank PTA (maryleeburbankpta@gmail.com).
A huge thanks to D. Muzzioli Associates for coming back TWICE more last week to help us spread two additional deliveries of playground mulch last week. Our playground looks fantastic now!
Sign up to volunteer to help out in the library when your child's class visits each week! Your child spends between 15-30 minutes in the library each week and you can be there to help their class check books out, shelving returned books or even reading a book to the class (K and 1st grade classes). The extra set of hands is greatly appreciated by our Library Aide, Ms. Watson and allows you to be a part of showing your child the wonderful world of children’s literature! Please use the following link to sign up for an upcoming slot for your child's classroom using the tabs along the top to navigate to your child's grade: Library Volunteers Sign-Ups
If you are new to the library you will need to first fill out a CORI form with Mrs. Sacca. Please take 5 minutes to review the Library Training Slides before your slot which introduces you to the responsibilities of the volunteer that would be great. If you don't have a chance to review the slides, no worries. Just arrive 5 minutes early and Ms. Watson or another volunteer can walk you through the routine.
