Weekly Skillin Scoop
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!
Playground Meetup Is Today!
Join us on the Skillin playground today from 1:00-3:00 for an afternoon of drinks, snacks, music, and fun.
The Next PTA Meeting is this Thursday
Join us on Thursday, November 9 from 6:00 to 7:00 in the Skillin Art Room or on Google Meet for our next PTA Meeting.
Agenda topics include:
An update about recent activities in the school from Principal Connolly and Assistant Principal Remsen
A recap of our No-Frills fundraiser and a look into what’s ahead from PTA Co-Presidents Tasha and Kristin
An update on the upcoming Family Game Night event
A discussion about the Mill Creek Lighting of the Trees fundraising opportunity
Open discussion
Our PTA Meetings are a great opportunity to gain information about what's happening in the school and share your ideas and suggestions for future activities, events, and directions. We welcome you to be involved, have a voice, and join the fun!
Teacher Appreciation Lunch Donations are Needed
We will be providing the teachers with a "Teacher Appreciation" pizza lunch on Wednesday, 11/8 to thank them for all the hard work they do. This is the week of parent-teacher conferences, so the teachers could use an extra pick me up!
Pizza will be provided through a generous donation from Meadow Farms, but we also need donations of salads and soft drinks.
Family Game Night is Next Friday
We will be hosting our second annual Family Game Night in the Skillin Gym on November 17th from 6:00-7:30. The entire Skillin community and all families are invited for a night of games and treats!
Get ready for some board games, larger than life games, snacks, a cupcake hop, and more!
This event was lots of fun last year, and we need your help to make it a success this year! Donate cupcakes, help set up, run an activity, or help with clean up.
