PTA News & Information
We did it again for the second year in a row! The PTA has raised $84,033 this school year, which is $9,033 above our $75,000 Assessment. A great BIG THANK YOU to all the parents, teachers and staff for your participation in the PTA events and fundraisers. The PTA will use this overage to purchase needed items for the students and the school. We will update you in September with the list of items that were purchased.
We have been selling the Christmas Bazaar Raffle Baskets. The baskets look great thanks to Christine Furey who put them together. They received a lot of compliments from people at the events we have already attended.
A special thank you goes out to all of our parent volunteers who have been selling the tickets in this heat. Your dedication is what makes our PTA a success - a heartfelt thank you to you!
But, we still need more parent volunteers. Tickets are being sold every weekend through November. Please email heatherjamesft@yahoo.com or betsygibson9@comcast.net to show your support for your school.
Uniform exchange is available at the school this summer Tuesday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Please visit this area to drop off your gently used uniforms and pick up any that you need. You do not need to drop off uniforms to pick up items.
The Christmas Bazaar will be held this year on Nov. 6. Tables are now available to rent - print out the application on this website under FORMS. For more information call the PTA line at 624-1900, ext. 31.
Continue to Clip your Campbell Soup labels and Box Tops all summer long!
Save them and we will let you know when to send them into school.
Weekly School and PTA Communications/Forms
In an effort to be as “green” as possible, we will be communicating electronically through our email and web site. If you have not yet submitted your email address to Ms. Gensel, please do so as soon as possible. Ms. Gensel’s email address is rgensel@bishopmchugh.com. If you are not receiving emails from the school please check your Spam file to be sure to allow our email to be received.
All forms and detailed information on the calendar can be found on the website as well. Be sure to check in once a week for the latest information.
On occasion information will be sent home with your child. Be sure folders are checked on a weekly basis.
Kid Mail
Kid mail is an intra-school mailing system. The PTA, Scrip, organizers of events, etc. will use this system periodically throughout the school year to send and receive certain information. It is usually sent via the oldest child in the school. If you plan to use this system please put TO and FROM information on the envelope with grade numbers.
Ongoing Fundraisers
Throughout the year, school will be collecting Box Tops (www.boxtops4education.com) to raise money for the PTA and Campbell Soup Labels (www.labelsforeducation) to earn merchandise for the school. Also, if you have a Target Credit Card please be sure to register Bishop McHugh Regional School to benefit from its Reward Program.
Scrip (Grocery Gift Card Program)
Scrip, which is a portion of the PTA’s fundraising efforts, will be available each day during school hours in the main office or via kid mail. Please see Sr. Rosemary in the office for same day orders or send in a check via kid mail, attention Sr. Rosemary. Gift cards will be sent home the same day. Scrip will also be sold at every school function as well. Shop-Rite, Acme and Superfresh cards will be available in denominations of $25 and $100. Our goal is to raise $5,000 - that's $100,000 of sales of grocery gift cards. Your continuous participation throughout the year is appreciated.
