Book Fair
Thank you so much for attending our Spring Book Fair.  We appreciate everyone who volunteered during setup, take down, family night, and classroom shopping times.  Hopefully the kids stocked up on books for the summer.

Thank you to Kathy Shields for the fabulous job! We are looking for someone who can co-chair the book fair with her next year.  If you are interested please email us at prairieviewpantherspto@gmail.com.
Teacher Appreciation Week
Thank you for helping us show our teachers some extra love during teacher appreciation week.  They loved all of the cards from the students!  The PTO also did a breakfast, lunch, and special raffle baskets for the teachers during the week.  Thank you to all the parents that baked special treats.  A special thank you to Tara Tonti and Debbie Atkins for all their hard work and planning. 
Mom & Son Night
Thank you to everyone who came out to Mom and Son Bowling night.  It was a very fun event.  We hope you all enjoyed yourselves. Wheaton Bowl does participate in Kids Bowl Free for the summer.  Go to www.kidsbowlfree.com and register your child and you will received free coupons in your email all summer for them to bowl free.  Great for those rainy summer days!
Back To School BBQ
We have decided to do a Back to School BBQ next year during the 2nd full week back.  We are thinking it will be similar to the 25th anniversary BBQ but with some extras like inflatables and games for the kids.  We are looking for a group of people that would like to help plan it.  If you are interested in being part of the planning committee or being the lead for this event please email us at prairieviewpantherspto@gmail.com
Playground Update
We have not raised enough money to do the full playground update yet.  We are in the planning mode for next year's fundraiser which will hopefully bring in enough to complete it.  We are happy to announce that we have approved the installation of 3 new bike racks and 2 new basketball hoops to be installed!  The installation will be done either this spring or summer.  Thank you for all your contributions towards our new updates!
Dr. Carlson Scholarship
Determining the recipient of the Dr. Richard Carlson Scholarship was a difficult decision and is based on many factors from a very competitive pool of candidates.  The PTO Scholarship Committee was incredibly impressed and proud of our former students.  They will surely represent Prairieview and Bartlett well in their future careers!

We are pleased to announce that we have chosen Samantha Turner as the recipient of the Dr. Richard Carlson Scholarship.  Samantha stood out regarding her academic achievements and commitments to sports and volunteer opportunities.  She will attend Ball State University in the fall and plans to major in Anthropology.  Congratulations Samantha!

A big thanks to Kate Sax and her committee for all their work reading applications and handling the interviews!
Yearbook
We are looking for photos from any upcoming spring events.  They won't make this year's yearbook but we would like to include them in next one. 

Specific events include:  Skate Night, Talent Show, 5th Grade Springfield Trip, and Mom/Son Night.   Please email them directly to laurabower79@gmail.com.

Thanks!
AMAZON SMILE
Did you know that you can donate money to Prairieview just by doing your normal shopping at Amazon?  If you are a big Amazon shopper please sign up for Amazon Smile.  Once you sign up you shop at www.smile.amazon.com and a portion of most things you purchase will be given back to our school!  We just received a check another check from Amazon for $45!  The only drawback to remember is you cannot order off of the app and get credit.  You have to log in to the website above!  Happy Shopping!
SHUTTERFLY
Do you use Shutterfly or Tiny Prints to order photos or cards?  We have just paired up with them for fundraising.  For all purchases using our Prairieview Storefront as described below, Shutterfly will give us back 13% of all sales!

To order:
  • Go to www.prairieview.shutterflystorefront.com
  • Click on Shop Shutterfly or Shop Tiny Prints
  • You will be sent to your normal sign in screen to complete your purchase.

The great part about this partnership is that you can share the storefront with your friends and family that also order from Shutterfly and all the 13% will benefit our school!
