SUBJECT: Herod PTO Newsletter 8.27

Herod Families, Welcome to another great year!


Great to see so many of you at Jet Fest this week. Looking forward to kicking off the school year tomorrow! Come join the PTO after drop off in the teacher lounge for boo-hoo or (woo-hoo) breakfast!


Don't forget to refresh yourself on the school drop off traffic procedures, there is a map located on the back of your car tags. There is absolutely no parking and dropping off heading East on Jason Street. Please make sure you use the cross walks when crossing any of the intersections, we want all of our Jets to get in the building safely! Pack your patience this week for our new safety patrol members and for all our families to get back in the groove of morning routines!


If you haven't signed up for PTO through membership toolkit, do so by Friday (Sept 1st) for your chance to win the raffle basket!


Looking forward to seeing you on the other side!


Sarah Schnure & Ashley McDonough

Have you seen the new playground covers on the main and PK/Kinder playground?! Ready for the first day of school and just in time for the Houston heat wave!

Teachers and Staff also have a very welcomed addition to the Teachers lounge...a new Ice Machine! Our Kinder Queen, Mrs Melancon, testing it out!

The playground has a new Gaga Pit & 2 ball carts for recess!

Privacy slates have been added to the fence between Herod & Gail Reeves Park.

And we treated the teachers & staff with an appreciation lunch & goodie bags with staff adventure t-shirt, Herod lanyard, & Starbucks gift card on Friday, we love to show our teachers & staff how grateful we are for their hard work!
