Fall Catalog Fundraiser
We are in the middle of our Fall Catalog Fundraiser.  Catalogs should have went home with your kiddos. This year we went with a new catalog which includes the popular Mixed Bags Designs.  Your Pioneer will be able to sell in person and also be able to create an online store for out of town family & friends. They can also advertise their store by sending out emails to friends and families to earn additional prizes.  Make sure your Pioneers turn in their daily sales coupons as they sell items for a chance to win additional prizes. 
All orders will be due this Friday, November 9th. 
Proceeds from this Fundraiser go to fund our student's Enrichment classes and Field Trips.

Reflections Gala & PTA Meeting
Make sure and come out to our Reflections Gala on Thursday, November 15th at 6:00pm following a brief PTA Meeting at 5:30pm.  Come view all the great artwork submitted and find out which Pioneer's artwork will be going onto the SCV Council competition.

Membership Contest
Big Congrats go out to Mrs Evans (for TK/K), Ms. Sapa (for Primary Grades) and Ms. Chavez-Gomez (for Upper Grades) who won the Membership Drive contest.  Each class will receive a treasure chest of prizes for their classroom.

It's never too late to join the Pinetree PTA and be apart of your children's education.  For more information on how to join, please see article below.

30th Birthday Celebration
Thank you to everyone who made it out to the 30th Birthday Celebration.  It was so special to see everyone get together to celebrate Pinetree's 30 Years of Excellence.  Special thank you to the Sulphur Springs School District and the Pinetree Teachers & Staff who made this a really great event. 

If you didn't make it out, you can view a video from SCVtv that features the full opening ceremony followed by clips from various aspects of the event including the Pop-Up Museum put together by the Pinetree PTA in the MPR.

Spirit Bundles
In celebration of Pinetree’s Big 30th Birthday year, the Pinetree PTA would like to introduce Spirit Bundles as a new way you can help the Pinetree PTA.  In return, you receive great goodies and recognition. We have multiple donation tiers to choose from, you can donate on behalf of your family or business name and one of the best parts - your donation is tax deductible.  This will help get Pinetree PTA on a great fundraising head start for the school year and depending on the tier, you will be able to get everything Pinetree PTA has to offer for the school year.  Pinetree PTA Fundraising provides complete funding for our enrichment classes including art and music instruction, as well as supporting classroom needs, field trips and school wide improvements.

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!

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. 
Also, the classes with the most memberships will win some really cool prizes.
