Maidu Elementary School

Thank you to the 2019 Corporate Sponsors of our Fun Run. We are so appreciative of your support!

Welcome to Maidu Parent Teacher Club (PTC)! As a parent/guardian of a Maidu student, you are a member of the Maidu PTC. Maidu PTC raises money to help fund activities, assemblies, and classroom/library supplies. Maidu PTC also hosts fun low-cost or no-cost all-family events. Last year, PTC organized a fall festival, movie night, skate night, talent show, ice cream social, book fair, and helped support math night, Sami’s circuit exercise event, the art docent program, and more!

 

There are so many ways you can get involved. Here are some ways to get started. 

Thanks,

Ann Marie Perozzi

Maidu PTC President

 

Teacher/Staff Appreciation Week is May 6th - 10th this year.  Room parents are in charge of coordinating activities and disseminating information. Below you’ll find some suggestions for Teacher/Staff Appreciation Week to help make a GREAT week for our wonderful staff at Maidu! Please feel free to do whatever you think would make your teacher feel the most special.  We want to let the staff know they are appreciated without disruption class time. PTC staff will be providing lunch for the staff on Friday!

Monday 5/6: Decorate Classroom Door; Bouquet for Teacher; Posters for All Staff

• Classroom Door: Room parents will decorate the inside of the classroom door. Please note that not all of the classroom doors are the same; consider taking measurements of the door to ensure the poster you create fits properly. The posters must go in the INSIDE of the door. The supply room in the office is available for a work space and for you to use die cuts and paper as needed.
• Bouquet: Students are encouraged to bring a single flower for the teacher to create a bouquet. Room parents may consider providing a vase for the teacher to assemble flowers into bouquet.
• Posters for All Staff: Let’s also make the aides and office staff feel special!  Visit the signup here: https://signup.com/go/AHMzXQx to sign up to make a poster for a staff member. Do you really appreciate Mrs. Dust’s friendly smile? Volunteer to make her a poster! 

Tuesday 5/7: Words From the Heart

• Encourage students to write a nice note or draw a picture for their teacher.

Wednesday 5/8: School Supply Day

• Spoil the teachers with some new school supplies. Students can bring things like pencils, crayons, markers, post its, hand sanitizer...you get the idea!

Thursday 5/9: Favorite Color Day

• Have students wear their teacher’s favorite color. If you need to look up the teacher’s favorite color, you can call the office or ask your teacher.

Friday 5/10: Favorite Things Day

• Encourage the students to bring the teacher one of her favorite things or a little treat.
• PTC staff will be providing lunch for the staff on Friday!

Thank you in advance for everyone’s help to make this a special week for our AMAZING staff at Maidu!  Thank you for all you do!

Mark your calendar with dates for Dining for Dollars! Our wonderful Dining for Dollars coordinator, June Powells-Mays, has booked events at a variety of restaurants for the entire year. Please consider visiting these establishments on the designated date and a percentage of their profits will be sent back to our Maidu PTC. Stay tuned in the eWednesday newsletter for the event time range and required flier you'll need to bring. 

 

A shout out of thanks to Breanne McCoy for getting these three programs started for our school and Maidu PTC. These funds help our PTC provide things like supplemental school supplies, assemblies and field trips for our students.

 

Box Tops for Education

Did you know that our school collects box tops AND that they can be found on many products, some of which you probably already have in your pantry? Please clip them out and send them to school with your children! You can drop them in the office or your child can give them to their teacher. Each one is worth cash to our school! You can find a complete list of participating products here.(https://www.boxtops4education.com/earn/participating-products)
