First Week of School Begins

Here goes..... The kids are going back to school for an unprecedented full five-day week of school. Five full days of school. Class lists are posted in upstairs and downstairs hallways and PTA helpers can assist children to their classrooms.

Winfree-ana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Yo-yo

Ask your kids about the quest for the crystal yo-yo. It is an exciting adventure to help track our PTA memberships. Will the famous Winfree-ana discover the crystal yo-yo. Will he be able to put all the clues together? Will Blue Grass reach their membership goal before August 29th? Will there be snakes involved? Why does it have to be snakes? Stay tuned..........

Be Good, Do Good!

We’re off to a new and exciting adventure! Blue Grass PTA has been planning all summer for a fun-filled year. We have adopted our theme from John Adams. “Be good do good” are words he spoke to his daughter as he was leaving for France during the Revolution. We feel that it is simple yet powerful and will truly resonate with our student body. Our theme is centered around encouraging civic involvement. We will stress the importance of being informed about the events around us at both the community and the world level. We are looking forward to a KidVote in October and EagleFeast (Feed your mind!) in November.

Kleenex and Coffee

Join the Blue Grass PTA for Klennex and Coffee on Monday morning, August 25th after dropping off kindergarteners for their first day of school. The event is held in the library and allows parents to view the famous morning announcements and enjoy goodies with others.

Grounds Day Huge Success!

Thanks so much to Jason Cottrell, our fearless Grounds Chair, Julie Fulcher, and his very paint spattered Co-chair ( from the yellow spray paint over-spray) for inspiring us! Special thanks to Joyce Patterson, Judith Pelot, Stacey Serafin, Jay Sokolow and Melissa Charland. If my yard could only look at nice as Blue Grass' grounds!
