Hello Sea Girt Families!
Hope everyone enjoyed the weekend and a rain free Sunday! Thanks to all who participated in the Teal Pumpkin Project. The young students really enjoyed the pop-up PTO event and we hope to see a lot of Teal Pumpkins out on Wednesday for Halloween. Thank you to all the volunteers who helped put this together and made it a success. Let’s go bigger next year!
Please continue to visit us at https://www.seagirtpto.com for updates, event details, and to browse the online apparel store!
Sea Girt Artisan and Craft Market
The Artisan and Craft Market is coming November 17th and 18th. For more information visit the event page on the website https://www.seagirtpto.com/event/craft-market/ and follow our new Instagram at @seagirtartisanmarket, where you will find links to some of the makers and all the information that is current.
There will be new apparel available at the Artisan Market this year, be ready to buy! Stop by and see all the new makers and apparel, work up an appetite for the kitchen and as always take home some baked goods and soup which are always a welcome treat!
Volunteering at the Market
The volunteer sign up list will be available at the Halloween Parade and then online at the PTO website afterwards. Do not miss a chance to help support your school with a few hours of volunteering, baking, or making soup. Don’t forget your donation of one baked good for each child you have in the school. The class baskets, baked goods, kitchen lunch and soup are always a success, so we continue to need family support for these. Please volunteer in whatever manner works best. We all can do our part for the kids and the school!

Box Tops
Please continue to save the box tops. The school is continuing the program this year and the kids enjoy the rewards. It is not necessary to count or paste box tops to collection sheets. Just simply cut and collect, then periodically have your child bring to school. There is collection bin by the front door of the school. Please remember to label your submission with your child’s grade either on/in the bag. (No need to label individual box tops.) If you have more than one child, you can list all their grades and box tops will be divided. At the end of the school year, any class which has collected 500 or more box tops will win a class prize. Winning classes, along with their teacher, can choose a pajama day, an extra recess, a class game or movie. Please let your children know about the contest and soon they’ll be spotting box tops all around the house!
See everyone at the Halloween Parade and on Halloween. Can’t wait to see all the kids and adults in their creative costumes! Be Safe!
The PTO thanks all the families for their continued support in moving forward all the activities and fundraisers throughout the year. Without the support of the administration and families we could not meet our mission.
With Patriot Pride,
The Sea Girt PTO Board, 2018-2019
