PTSO MINUTES
April 6, 2011
Meting was called to order at 6:45. Members in attendance were Roxanne Mirch, Priscilla Andrewski, Cathleen Breen, Annie Hallen, Sharon Fife and Bonnie Schlott.
The March minutes were read. Roxanne made a motion to approve the minutes, Priscilla seconded and carried.
Roxanne gave a financial report. The current balance is $4,455.50. Insurance is due 4/8/11 of $272. Priscilla made a motion to approve the financial report, Cathleen seconded and carried.
There were no communications.
Book Fair – The book fair was held Wed thru Friday 3/30-4/1. The gross sales were $1267.21. Scholastic requires sales above $2000 to make a cash profit. We received $725 in “Scholastic Dollars”. The librarian is going to select books. A big thank you to Julie Gabel and Jill Grishaber for setting up and running the book fair. Next year we should advertise better.
Flag contest - Annie is going to send an email to Dr. Hilton to find out when the entries can be judged.
BLT – There haven’t been any meetings.
After Prom event – A day at Great Adventure. We are donating $500 towards the bus. This was approved in our budget. We will use the proceeds of the Lifetouch
Wooden rose fundraiser – we had to postpone the Mother’s Day fundraiser because the Jr. class is selling flowers. Sharon suggested we try to make it a graduation fundraiser. Bonnie will get information for the next meeting.
Scholarship committee – Annie will be in charge of the committee. She will get ballots to Mrs. Parkinson.
Discount Cards – we decided we weren’t interested in selling discount cards this year.
Tablecloths – Bonnie got some information on tablecloths. There is an option, a runner, that is 30x90” and is put on top of a solid cloth. The cost is $130 for 1, $90 each for 2 and $69 for 3. We agreed to purchase 2 for the school and 1 for the PTSO. Roxanne made a motion to approve, Annie seconded motion carried. Bonnie will get the information from Debbie Molusky and start working on getting them ordered.
Teacher Appreciation - We have $250 in our budget for a breakfast like last year. Annie and Priscilla will get bagels, muffins and fruit for Wednesday 5/4/11.
Clothing Drive – Bonnie will send an email out for volunteers so we can get the drop off dates scheduled.
Officer Nominations – we will do this next month
Lifetouch proceeds – Need to find out the amount from Scott. Lifetouch won’t make the check out to the PTSO. We agreed to have the money go to SADD and they will cut checks on our behalf. We agreed to use $500 of it towards the After Prom activity and $150 towards the senior luncheon. We will decide on the balance as soon as it is known.
A suggestion was made to make a donation for a rewards program for St tests. We will talk about at a later date.
Fundraiser ideas – Penny Social & Alumni basketball.
A motion was made at 8:10 by Roxanne to adjourn, Sharon seconded, carried.
Next Meeting –May 4th @ 6:30
