Cynthia Cabrera asked that I post this info about getting free tickets for Blue Man Group! Please take advantage of this wonderful opportunity!

A few folks have forwarded some web links that you might find helpful-
Ms. Wheatley passed on a link to summer activities that promote literacy and just look like a lot of fun.

Cynthia Cabrera forwarded a link to help us keep our kids safe this summer.
Don’t mean to cause grief during the summer, but I think this is very important. During the summer we think about relaxing and may become careless…kids are outside riding their bikes, attending summer camp, partaking in activities at the park, etc. Please keep in mind those individuals that are unassuming may be sexual perpetrators. I can guarantee there are some living in your neighborhood.
In order to remain cautious, you can locate some of these individuals by connecting to this website:

On the left hand side enter your zipcode or the desired zipcode and “cook” under county and then click on FIND. You should see a list of individuals along with their place of residence. If you click on DETAIL a picture of the individual will also appear.
Interviews with the Principal Candidates are scheduled to Weds, June 27 from 9:30am to 7:00pm. We are hoping to give each candidate a tour of the school and need some volunteers to provide those tours.
If you would like to get a sneak peak at the candidates by giving them a tour and are available on Weds, June 27 for any part of the day, please get in touch with Laura at 278-4871 to sign up.
All are welcome at this LSC meeting focusing on Principal Selection. The goal of this meeting is to approve final interview questions (drawn from those submitted by our community), finalize candidate interview plans, and select the candidates to interview from the 50 applications submitted.
Due to the need for discretion in discussing principal candidates and the hiring process, portions of this meeting will be closed. All votes, however, will be in open session as required by law.
Looking forward to seeing you there,
Sabrina
At the request of Mr. Neidlinger, I am forwarding the following regarding the passing of Mrs. Collins’ father:
Hello All:
Great News! After an exhausting, lengthy process, Rachel Gross has successfully submitted our bid for tax exempt status with the IRS on the FIRST try! This is huge for PTO because it means that we no longer have to pay tax on things we purchase for our events, for the school, etc. It also means that money donated to PTO or to Drummond School through PTO is TAX DEDUCTIBLE!
As stated in PTO Bylaws: ”Money that is given to the PTO with the donor’s expressed intention that such donation be a direct donation to the School (and not as a past of a PTO fundraiser or donation to the PTO) shall be turned over to the School within twenty one (21) days.
Thank you, Rachel, for your tireless efforts on behalf of PTO! This really is a huge step for our organization.
