ANNOUNCEMENTS
PTO FALL COMMUNITY NIGHT
Mark your calendars for the first PTO Community Night of the year on Tuesday, November 27th at 6:30 pm. Please join us in the school library as we hear from a panel of speakers about Technology Integration at Hollymead. Kley Todd (ACPS Learning Technology Integrator), Megan Kopley (School Counselor), and Joette Crone (Librarian) will lead a presentation focusing on the purpose of technology in the schools, innovative applications, and safety with technology in school and at home. There will be breakout sessions following the presentation that will allow attendees to go hands-on with classroom learning technologies, ask questions and explore more in-depth topics, and discover how parents can become involved.
REMINDERS
DINING NIGHT OUT IS THIS TUESDAY!
Save yourself the cooking during this busy Thanksgiving week, and plan to dine in or take out from Chipotle to make dinner one less thing to worry about. Chipotle at Barracks Road will host our next DNO, THIS Tuesday, November 20th from 4:00-8:00pm. Dinner will be taken care of and you’ll be supporting PTO programs at Hollymead. Please mention our school when you order in person and note that online orders will not count towards our fundraiser. Thank you for your support!
