YOUR PTO, YOU're PTO, YOU ARE PTO

This year the PTO has two themes we are focusing on:

  1. PRIDE = COMMUNITY
    Your child(ren), you, your partner, your pets are all part of this wonderful Stratton Community. We not only share a school, we share neighborhoods, playgrounds and local businesses. Working together and looking out for one another is what makes a PRIDE strong.
    This year let’s be PRIDE STRONG!
     
  2. BE READY TO PIVOT!
    It’s not just a sports term, it’s a life lesson. It goes inline with the Robert Jordan quote, “The oak fought the wind and was broken, the willow bent when it must and survived.” As a PTO we are striving to bring back some of our beloved Stratton traditions.  Safety is always a top priority, as is inclusion, and when we must, we will pivot to ensure that our actions and events reflect these beliefs.

 

And remember, as soon as your child(ren) start attending Stratton, not only are you part of the PRIDE; you are also part of the PTO!

 

WINTER CLOTHING COLLECTION FOR CRADLES TO CRAYONS AND THE STRATTON WINTER RECESS CLOSET - DECEMBER 1st - 17th 

 

Winter is coming… and with it the need for cold weather gear.

 

As part of their Philanthropist Badge Stratton’s 3rd Grade Brownie troop are collecting winter coats (all children’s sizes and up to adult medium), hats, gloves and cozy winter pajamas from December 1st – 17th. There will be 2 large plastic container’s one just inside and one outside in the main entrance. Please place items in the bins or send them into school with your child. 

 

In addition to supporting Cradles to Crayons, the 3rd Grade Brownie Troop will also be collecting items for the Stratton Winter Recess Closet.

 

Sometimes kids lose or forget their gloves, hats, coats, etc. Students without the appropriate clothing are technically not allowed outside for recess. Nobody wants that! So when a Stratton student finds themselves without the appropriate clothing to go outside teachers look to the Winter Recess Closet for supplies.

 

The PTO will be collecting winter gear over the next month to fill the Winter Recess Closet. Please send in new or like new gloves, hats, snow pants, jackets and snow boots for Stratton for your child to place in the Winter Recess Donation bin.

 

It is the season to order online so if you prefer, check out the Stratton Winter Recess Closet Amazon Wishlist by going to:

 

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/D1KUJYITJWJ6?ref_=wl_share

 

Please note: Hats and gloves will not be returned to the closet once borrowed. If you student comes home with an item from the closet and you are able to, please pay it forward and replace hats and gloves, or wash and return coats and snowpants.

 

Many Thanks for your support. Any questions please feel free to reach out to  sarah.sawyer08@gmail.com
