GOOD TO KNOW
Morse PTO 2021-2022 Board Positions Are you looking to get more involved in the Morse community? Wanting to connect with other Morse parents or learn more about how the PTO operates? We are looking for YOU. We are currently seeking those who are interested in serving on the Morse PTO Board for the 2021-2022 school year. To be eligible to run for a board position, you must currently be a member of the Morse PTO (meaning you paid the $30 PTO dues this school year). Please email the Board if you are interested, have questions, or want more information. Morse Elementary Senior Scholarship Every year Morse PTO awards a $1,000 scholarship to a graduating senior who attended Morse Elementary for a minimum of 3 years. Do you know a graduating senior who may want to apply? Seniors can read more about eligibility criteria here and download an application here. The deadline for the scholarship is March 26, 2021. Check in with Teachers about Cleaning Supplies As teachers work to keep our students healthy, they are quickly going through Clorox wipes and other supplies. Check in with your child's teacher to see if more Clorox wipes and Germ X/Purell hand sanitizer are needed. The teachers will be so thankful. |
