After-School Enrichment Classes

Did you know that PTA offers after-school enrichment classes for your child? As a PTA member, this is just one of the benefits you receive when supporting your school PTA. While PTA volunteers work with the instructors to make these classes possible, it is important to know that this is NOT a moneymaking opportunity. Instructors determine class cost per student and keep all of the money minus a small classroom usage fee.

Enrichment classes will be offered in the fall beginning September 30th and will run for 6 weeks. There will also be a winter session beginning January 27th and a spring session beginning April 14th. Registration information will be sent home in early September.

Your PTA works hard to offer a variety of classes for students and is always on the lookout for new and exciting classes, as well as feedback on what you like and what needs improvement. We encourage you to fill out a SHORT survey by going to the link below. For more information, please contact Rachel Freiheit at thefreiheits@gmail.com. Thank you!
 

Its that time again!

Summer has flown by and we're gearing up for another great year at Cherry Valley!


Remember to attend Takin' Care Of Business, tomorrow from 3:00 to 5:00. Bring your checkbook to pay for memberships, yearbooks, class fees, even prepay on your child's lunch account. You can also:
  • meet your child's teacher
  • drop off school supplies in classrooms (K-3 only)
  • sign up to be on the PTA volunteer contact list! Volunteers will be making balloon animals as a thank you for parents who submit a Riverview School District Volunteer Application and sign up to be on the PTA volunteer contact list.   You will need to have your driver's license and the date of your last Tdap/Td vaccination if you would like to submit a Riverview School District Volunteer Application.  All volunteers need to be approved by the Riverview School District in order to help out at Cherry Valley Elementary. If you have already been approved by Riverview School District to volunteer, show your approval email and sign up to be on the PTA Volunteer contact list.  If you were approved during the 2012-13 school year and had submitted a volunteer form, your volunteer status can be confirmed in the PTA Volunteer Database.
     
The first general PTA meeting of the year will be held Tuesday, September 24 at 7pm in the Library. Being involved with the PTA is a great way to have an active share in your child's education - we hope to see you there!
