NLS PBC has a long tradition of organizing fun, family-centered programs. Anyone is welcome to attend the monthly PBC meeting, the second Tuesday of the month at 7:45 am across from the school office. Come join us for a welcome continental breakfast on Thursday, Sept. 1st (First Day of School).

The following school fundraisers have been planned:

Great American Magazine Sale / Kickoff Monday, Sept. 19, 2016
Poinsettia Sale / November 2016 / Poinsettia Delivery – Thursday, Dec. 1, 2016
Marcus Theater Ticket Sale / October – November 2016
End of School Year Raffle / Wednesday, June 7, 2017

Other fundraisers which may continue throughout the school year include: Culvers Nights; Family Directory; Spirit Wear; & Box Tops for Education (Save those box tops all year long!)

As an alternative to fundraising, we are continuing an option we introduced last year…for a one-time donation of $100 (payable to NLS), your family will be exempt from fund raising for the 2016-17 school year (see attached sheet).

Think about what your family can contribute to the school this coming year…time, talent…do you like to bake, decorate, or garden, or perhaps take photos at school events? Please complete the attached form and turn it in at the PBC booth during school registration on August 17, 2016. If you are new to North Lake School or are not familiar with the PBC activities, please come talk with us at the PBC booth.

A great way to stay informed as to what is happening at NLS is to read the school’s weekly newsletter, The Wave and to refer to the school website at www.northlakeschool.org.

Thank you for your support in advance. With your help, it is going to be an awesome year!

Sincerely,

Susan Schlett – NLS PBC VP 2016-17
