Art Auction:

Did you enjoy the art and music festival during open house? Now you can bring it home with you! Bid on FB on the sixth grade’s Chihuly-inspired masterpiece, coordinated by our beloved art docent, Margaret Batchelor.

This lightweight sculpture is perfect to mount over an LED or fluorescent (low heat) light fixture or to dress up with bee lights (like we have here) and display anywhere in your home.

The faux glass pieces of this sculpture were designed by each sixth grade student on glasses, plates and sheets of plastic, and then melted and compiled to make this unique sculpture. All proceeds will benefit the Art Docent Program at Proctor Terrace. Bidding will end at noon on the last day of school, June 2. Good luck!

(Not on FaceBook?  Don’t worry!  Contact Bess Allen now atbesslake@gmail.com with your mobile number and she’ll get you involved in the bidding by text!)


PTA Summer Committees:

As the school year draws to a close, your 2016-17 PTA Board is excited to start planning another great year! Would you like to join other enthusiastic parents in relaxed get-togethers and be part of planning next year’s programs for Proctor? Now forming, summer committees will meet a few times over the next few months to plan priorities and outline events and activities for next year.

These committees include: Budget, PTA Climate, Building Projects, PTA Structure and Classroom Enrichment. Planning committees are open to all and will be chaired and facilitated by a Board member. Committees for our two fun fall events, Walkathon and Tigerfest are also forming.

If you are interested in being part of any of these exciting summer committees, or would just like more information, contact Bess Allen atpresident@proctorterracepta.org.

Year Books 2015-2016:

We’re approaching the end of the year, and what a year it’s been! So many memories have been had by all, and what better way to remember them than a yearbook?

Your Proctor Terrace PTA wants to ensure that every student received a yearbook, regardless of financial ability, so yearbooks will be ordered for every student at the school. While payment for these yearbooks is not required, donations to help offset the cost are welcome.

If you’re interested in donating, we have a suggested donation of $15 per student (but any amount helps). If making a donation, please attach your donation to this flyer and return to the office. Thank you for helping to make this such a great year for our students. We couldn’t have done it without you!
