GOOD NEWS
Trivia Night A Success Thanks to your generosity, Trivia Night raised approximately $9,500 for the Morse community! We appreciate your support to make this event a success. Remember that next year Trivia Night will be our only fundraiser, so the continued success of this event is important. Trivia Night Auction Experiences Still Valid Rest assured that auction experiences such as Principal for a Day, Extra Recess, Guest Host of the Morse Announcements, and Teacher Treasures will be honored when it is safe and responsible to do so. More details to come. |
GOOD TO KNOW
Volunteer for the 2020-2021 School Year Be on the lookout for the Morse PTO Volunteer Sign-Up Genius in the next few weeks. We can't wait to bring back all of your favorite Morse events and traditions next school year, but we need your help!

Morse PTO Board Member Elections Morse PTO Board Member elections for the 2020-2021 school year cannot take place in a meeting as usual. At present, all positions are running unopposed. You will be receiving an email from the school, asking if you would like to be considered for a board position or have concerns.

HOW TO HELP
Do You Know an Incoming Kindergartener? Since Kindergarten Round-Up has been delayed, the school district needs your help to communicate to incoming kinder families how important it is to register now with the school in their community (if they have not already done so). Numbers for registration help to determine staffing. Please pass along this information. Looking to Help Others? Mission Southside is an organization in our community that describes itself as having "a neighbor's heart." Mission Southside continues to collect, prepare and deliver food to the school kids and families who are food insecure during the crisis. Click the link to see how you can help. |
