Hello Families and Friends of Stanford!
I have a couple of things I want to remind you about that I think you will be interested in.
* Stanford’s Book Fair is currently going on at school! Grandparent’s Day yesterday was awesome and tonight, Thursday, Sept. 8th, is Family Night from 5:30-8:00. Hot dogs, chips and a drink for $1!! There will also be desserts sold for $1 each. Bring the whole family, invite aunts and uncles, everyone is welcome! While you’re there make sure to check out your teacher’s classroom wish list for books when you visit. The Book Fair is how the PTO supports the Library and our children’s literacy, so please take time to attend this event.
*Perks for Parents and our monthly PTO meeting is Monday, Sept. 12 at 6:00 p.m. Come to this social event to learn about Stanford and the PTO. You might be surprised at the tidbits of information you can pick up that will help you and your child!
*Saturday Sept., 17th from 9-12 is a Grounds Clean Up Day. Please come by for an hour or so to help us weed and clean the grounds. The grounds are what your children see and play on everyday and we want it to be pleasing for them!
Mark you calendars because the Fall Fest is less than a month away, Saturday, October 8th. Bring the whole family to enjoy this event!
As always, THANK YOU for your support of Stanford!
Amy Cole
PTO President

Stanford Montessori raises money every year with Kroger Co.’s gift card fundraising program. The money we spend is tracked through gift cards, and then sent to our school when it totals $5,000. It’s a real win- win situation.
You can use the Kroger gift card for groceries, gas and prescriptions, and it works through the summer as well. Next time you’re buying groceries, remember to load up your gift card and send the proceeds to Stanford!
