Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day!
Hope everyone has a great and restful Martin Luther King Jr. Day. 

Now, onto this week's Pioneer News...

Celebrations & Traditions Around The World

Our Celebrations & Traditions Around the World event is this Friday. We could really use some more volunteer families sharing their heritages at a table. This is a FREE event and our students love it as they get to learn about so many different heritages we have here at Pinetree. Whether you share a custom food dish or beverage, maps, clothing, facts, etc from your heritage, it's up to you. We'll also have a live performance by an Aztec dance group that is always a crowd favorite. If you're interested in participating, please reach out to Erma Campos at 661-219-4858 or email president@pinetreepta.org

Celebrations & Traditions Around The World
SAVE THE DATE PLEASE!

Join us for an evening of International festivities as we celebrate holiday traditions around the world. Come on out and enjoy samples of the different foods and learn about the cultures that make up our diverse Pinetree Community. We’ll also have a fun festive performance to enjoy. Refreshments will be served a long with fun cultural foods provided by our participants. This is a fun free event provided by the Pinetree PTA.

What: Pinetree's Annual Celebrations Around the World
When: Friday, January 25th, 2019
Where: Pinetree’s MPR - 6:00-8:00 p.m. after a brief PTA meeting at 5:30 p.m.

Please consider sharing your families’ heritage by hosting a table at this event!

This is an opportunity to celebrate and learn about the diverse population of families that make up Pinetree. We are hoping to have as many countries represented as possible.

Each country represented will be given a table to showcase their culture. We've had traditional first birthdays, Christmas, Hanukah, just to name a few. It's up to YOU to decide which festive occasion you would like to share or if you just want to host a booth that shares any fun information about your culture, that is great too! We would like you to showcase things like food, games, geographical location, music, traditional clothing, etc. It is an evening filled with music, fun, and a celebration of the different cultures within our school community.

If you wish to host a table, please complete the form (link to form below), return it to your student’s teacher or the school office. Click here to download the Celebrations Flier

Join the Pinetree PTA!
Let's see if we can bypass last year's membership total.  If you haven't joined the Pinetree PTA, make sure to join today!  We're less than 20 members away from passing last year's total!

As you can see, we have kicked off our Membership drive with a cool "Rock & Roll" theme because Pinetree PTA Members Rock! 

Come join the Pinetree PTA and have a voice in your child's education.  Please note that joining the PTA doesn't require you to attend the meetings or volunteer although we and your students would LOVE if you did.  The Pinetree PTA was able to increase the membership count in the 2017-18 year by over 10% over the 2016-17 school year.  Let's show that we can do it again.
