We want to make sure that we are giving the opportunity for working families to be able to be part of our PTO meetings. Please come to hear about the positive impact of our PTO – School partnership to support academic and social growth for all our students.
Conferences & Book Fair
Tuesday, January 31 begins the Parent/Teacher conferences along with the Scholastic Book Fair. Come early or stay late after your conferences to browse the selection of books in the front lobby. Some great selections!
Also….for the month of February the Collins PTO is collecting gently used/new books for our sister school Buchanan Elementary in Grand Rapids. Why not clean out your old already read books and drop them in the bin in the front entryway and then get yourself/child a new book from the scholastic book fair. Or buy a book for you and one for Buchanan. Let’s support reading and getting books in to the hands of children.
