Coming Soon - Pinetree PTA Yard Sale
It's that time of the year for spring cleaning.  Instead of throwing away those items/clothing you no longer need, please hold them.  On Saturday, April 15th we will be holding the first ever Pinetree PTA Yard Sale to benefit a special cause at the school to be announced soon.  We are a charitable organization so we will be providing tax deductions for any items you donate.  More information will be coming home soon but we wanted to let you know so you can start gathering and holding those items you believe we can sell.  We will be collecting them the week of April 10th - 14th.  Also, make sure you calendar April 15th to wake up bright and early to come shopping.   Tell your friends, family and neighbors as everyone knows one man's junk is another man's treasure!

School Dance - SAVE THE DATE!!!
This year, in lieu of the Father/Daughter and Mother/Son dances we will be holding a family "Hawaiian Luau" themed dance on Friday, April 28th.   This way all parents and all pioneer students can come and dance the night away.  We'll have a DJ, photographers, food and more.  Tickets will go on sale soon but we wanted to give you the date ahead of time.  Also, new to this year, PTA members will be able to get in 1/2 hour early to beat the lines.  It pays to be a Pinetree PTA member and it's never too late to join, please click HERE for more information on how to join the Pinetree PTA.
