Dear Families,
It is so hard to believe that this is the last Puma Press we will be sending out for the year 2025. We had such a great start to the school year, and we are so grateful for all the support this year. We hope everyone has a wonderful winter break, and we are excited to see everyone back in January!
Please consider joining the PTA! Our goal this year is 300 members, and we are currently at 234 members. It does not require any time for volunteering, and your membership dues fund the school in many different ways (field trips, Fall & Spring events, assemblies, staff appreciation week, etc.). Thank you for your support!
Join the PTA
Also, we will have our next PTA meeting on Monday, January 26th. We hope you will join us that day at 7pm!
We still have many items in our lost & found that were not claimed by families last week. This week, we will have all leftover items available for anyone to grab during drop off (front lobby) & pick up (outside).
This year, the theme for our yearbook cover is “One Powell”. You can paint, draw, and/or sketch a piece of art & submit it to an art teacher by this Thursday, December 18th. Don’t forget to include the slip of paper with your artwork (see below for form).
Just 1 more day! Registration for Baroody Camps’ enrichment at Colin Powell opens tomorrow.
Be ready to grab your child’s spot for afternoons filled with fun, learning, and new friendships.
