Waterloo Elementary PTA

Welcome

Welcome to the Waterloo Elementary School PTA Website for the 2010-2011 school year.

Our Website is a resource for parents, students, and staff members.  Through the website, you can stay current on PTA activities at our school. 

The PTA is an important school partner - we help provide opportunities for parents to get involved in their child's elementary school experience, we hold many family activities that allow students and families to get to know one another, and we support our school and the staff through staff appreciation activities and classroom enrichment funds.

Welcome Back Picnic
Mark your calendars for Thursday, September 16th, and join us from 5:30-7:00 p.m. for Waterloo’s Welcome Back Picnic. This will be a great opportunity to reconnect with old friends and meet new ones! Come one, come all and bring your picnic blanket or chairs and some backyard games if you’d like. Families may bring their own picnic dinner OR pre-order cheese pizza (provided by Bella Mia Pizzeria) and soda. Pizzas need to be pre-ordered by returning the Welcome Back Pizza Order Form to school by Monday, September 13th. Your pre-ordered pizzas will be available for pick up at the picnic. The picnic will be held outside in back of the school; the raindate is Thursday, September 23. If you would like to volunteer to help during the picnic or if you have any questions, please contact Tami McClatchey at mcclatchey@verizon.net or 410.480.1775. We hope to see you at the picnic!

PTA Innisbrook Fundraiser
The Innisbrook sale is our major fundraiser for the year, so your participation and support is greatly needed and appreciated. Innisbrook fundraiser packets were sent home with every student during the first week of school. A wonderful selection of gift wrap, gift bags, baking accessories, magazines and chocolates are available with delivery in time for the holidays! In addition to the prizes provided by Innisbrook, which are shown on a flyer contained in the packet, the PTA will provide the following prizes: a gift certificate to the Waterloo Book Fair for the top seller in every grade, Waterloo magnets for each student in the top-selling class, and bookmarks for all students in every class with at least 50% participation.

The sale ends Thursday, September 23rd, and all orders will be available for pick-up at school on Tuesday, October 26th, from 4:00–7:00 p.m. Waterloo PTA receives 50% of all sales and all proceeds support PTA-sponsored activities, including cultural arts programs, classroom enrichment and family involvement activities. Out-of-town family and friends can also support Waterloo by going to www.innisbrook.com and using our school code: 106269. Remember to be safe and do not go door-to-door for orders without adult supervision. If you have any questions, please contact Crystal Donohue at donohues47@verizon.net or 410.465.6415. Thank you for your support!
