Love is in the Air!

 

Love
Love is this week's character strength focus. Love means you value close relationships with others and value being close to people. The character strength of love represents the way we think, feel, and behave towards the people with whom we have close relationships. To read more about the character strength of love, click here


Valentine's Treats For Remote Students
Thank you to the PTA for providing all of the East Hill students with a Valentine's treat! They are going to love them!  Remote students can pick up their valentine this Thursday, 2/11, between 2:45 and 3:30 at East Hill. Please call the office if this time does not work for you.

Chipotle Night this Wednesday!
Do you love burritios? Our PTA is holding a Chipotle Night fundraiser this Wednesday, February 10th, from 4:00 - 8:00 at the Camillus location. A portion (33%) of the earnings will support our PTA and school. Just mention East Hill when your order in store or show them the flyer that is coming home today. You will also be able to place orders online with the Chipotle app using the promo code R8WXF3K before checkout. The PTA loves your support! Click here for more details
Super Bowl Food Drive
Thank you for the tremendous community support and generosity for the Super Bowl Food Drive. A total of 227 food items were donated. The items will be boxed with the help of the Girl Scouts and donated to West Genesee families in need of support over the winter break. The winner? Well, it appears a little more love was shown to the Kansas City Chiefs over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but it was close! Unfortunately, in my opinion, the actual winner was not Kansas City. (I don't personally have much love for Tom Brady!)

Coloring Contest
Thank you to everyone that participated in the PTAs coloring contest! I love the effort and creativity shown in the pictures. The winners for each grade level are shown below.
Audra P., Kindergarten

Aiden A., 1st Grade

Abigail A., 2nd Grade

Marian B., 3rd Grade
Bohdan H., 4th Grade

All of the contest submissions, along with the 2nd and 3rd place winners, can be found on the East Hill PTA Facebook page. 

Are You Missing an Amazon Package?
A package was recently delivered to one of the PTA people in charge of Community Giving. It was likely from a person who ordered something for Community Giving and didn't change their address back on the Amazon site. If you are missing something, please let me know. Thanks!

Upcoming Events:
2/8    PTA Meeting, 6:30 - 7:30
2/10  Chipotle Night
2/15  Winter Break
2/22  School Resumes

Have a great week, and a great winter break!
