2 HOURS OF POWER VOLUNTEER CHALLENGE
Join Our Spring Event Committees While we are happy to report our spring events - Trivia Night and Fun Run/Carnival do have event chairs, we would love to add a few more committee members to assist these leaders in their fundraising and event planning efforts. Committees will be meeting soon, so don't delay! Sign up to join a Spring event committee here. |

DON'T FORGET
**Speak Up Before It's Too Late!** We need your input as we prepare for the next school year, particularly when it comes to our fundraising efforts. Because we have struggled to secure event chairs and committee members, we are considering a major shake up in our fundraising events, but first, we want to hear from you! Your voice will impact the direction we take in future planning, so don't delay! Complete our short online PTO survey. The survey will close on Friday, December 20th. Money For Morse: AmazonSmile As you shop for the holidays, be sure you are supporting Morse through AmazonSmile, where you’ll find the exact same low prices, vast selection and convenient shopping experience as Amazon.com, with the added bonus that Amazon will donate a minimum of 0.5% of the purchase price to Morse Elementary. See how easy it is to set up AmazonSmile here. |
