Weekly Skillin Scoop: No Frills, Student Directory, and More!
The best way to stay in the know about important dates, calls-to-action, and other information that impacts our Skillin Skyhawks each week. Please take a moment to read this week’s announcements!
Don’t forget to donate!
The No Frills Fundraiser is our most important fundraiser of the year. This simple, direct donation fundraiser provides the money needed to supplement the school budget to send all grades on field trips and bring exciting enrichment activities into the school, like the Chewonki Traveling Animals.
Donating is quick and easy. Donte online using Give Butter, or send your student into school with a check made out to Skillin School PTA.
Our first weekly winner is…
Kevin Platukis, you’re the winner of a $25 Starbucks gift card! A big thank you for supporting our No Frills Fundraiser.

The Student Directory is Open for Submissions!
The Skillin Student Directory is a voluntary directory of contact information for Skillin students by grade. The Student Directory allows families to connect—a way to reach out with birthday invitations or to plan for play dates. .
You must voluntarily give your contact information, the school can not give it out to other families. This is not a directory of all Skillin Elementary students, the information of families and students who complete this form will be included.
Ice Cream Social was a Hit!
Thank you to everyone who joined us at last Thursday’s Ice Cream Social! It was wonderful seeing so many of you enjoying sweet treats, connecting with one another, and learning more about Skillin. We loved the energy you brought, and we’re so grateful to everyone who helped make the night a success. Here’s to more sweet moments together this year!
