Penny Wars
We had so much fun with our annual Penny Wars this week! We raised $957.85. It was a hard-fought battle, but the final winners were 3rd grade! They voted via a Google form to donate half of the proceeds to Anderson Humane. The other half will be used to support our Battle of the Books program here at Spring Trail. Thank you all for your participation in this super exciting event!

Assistance Needed!!
Staff Appreciation Week is next week! We are looking for help decorating the school after students leave on Friday, May 2. The more people we have, the faster it will get done! Please email board@springtrailpto.org if you are available to assist, or just arrive at 2:30 and let the office know you are there to help!

Yearbooks
As the end of the school year approaches, so does the end of the ordering window to receive a yearbook before the last day of school. It is still possible to order for that time, however there will now be a shipping charge incurred. Please make sure to get your orders in ASAP so that your students can get their friends’ signatures during their last day at Spring Trail this year! Go to https://www.treering.com/purchase?PassCode=1016364339231287 to order your child’s today!

School Supply Kits
The time has come for us to begin buying our students supplies for school again. If this is a bummer to you like it is to many of us, your PTO has found a way to simplify the process! We are partnering with EduKit to offer premade kits with the exact items requested by each grade at Spring Trail. The kits will be delivered to school for pickup the week before we begin in August. A flyer should have come home with your student this week with the information, but you can also follow here to find out more!

PTO Meeting
Our final meeting of the school year will be held May 13 at 6:30 pm in the Commons. We would love to see you there! Children are always welcome to attend as well.

Spring Trail Blankets
Looking for a special gift for your special Tiger? We are selling our super soft and cozy blankets for $20 each! Payment can be sent with your student or via Zelle, and blankets can be either given to the student or we can arrange a private pickup if you’d like to keep it a surprise. Great for picnics, chilly sidelines, cozy days on the couch, and more!
