February 2015 Meeting Minutes

2/5/2015

Treasurer Report 
-After all other expenses, we paid out $40+ dollars for the Holiday shop, which is great! Money from Box Tops and Match Day as well.  January was a pretty quiet month.  

-Playground-Meeting on the 10th to go over playground info.  We are anticipating being asked to pay for a structure of some sort on the playground.  Ms. Kent prefers a K-2 unit and also a gaga pit. Are they considering eliminating anything on the playground?? There have been a lot injury's on the monkey bars.

Teacher Report - Mrs. Scheible 
- Teachers needs - K could use another iPad to facilitate centers or in-class academic time. 

-Field Trips-K, 2, & 3 are looking at field trips.  K wants to go to The Childrens Museum in GR. 2 wants to go to a Nature center in Cedar Springs.  3 wants to go to a place in Howard City.  4 does a lot of little things in April/May usually.  

-Scholastic resources and the catalog - the teacher are all looking at it.  After the next book fair, we should be sitting on about $5000.  K teachers looking at a listening center for the ipads, we should go ahead and order them now.  They do not have ipads through scholastics however.  Have not heard from some of the other teachers yet as to what they are interested in.  We want to let the teachers know that we want to get these things for them, we don’t want them to be afraid to ask!!  All the teachers got $250 and $1500 worth of books for classrooms and $1000 for the library.  Want to do a reading night on the book fair night.  Have a bigger book fair night and a dinner on March 18th.  Do the center hall for the reading night.  We can give a gift certificate to the book fair for the raffle.  We ran the math night from 5:30 - 7:30 and will run the same times for the reading night.

Old Business
-Super Teacher worksheets - we will not pair with Brookside 

-Technology - 30 iPads for the cart, 10 iPads for K, and 5 Chromebooks

-We have bought 10 chromebooks but we have yet to see them.  We are also waiting on the soccer nets, though we are waiting for the playground info to come back before moving forward.  

-We have a logo for walk-a-thon sponsored items.

-Calling all Moms coming up.

New Business
-Dads day - Perhaps around St. Pattys “We’re lucky to have you” maybe with some shamrock cookies, etc.

-Movie night - Honors kids will have their sign up tomorrow, so we will know how many to expect.  If we have enough, we can do a drop off event.  Big Hero Six will be the movie.  

-Book Fair - what are we gonna serve? We have done both nachos and spaghetti in the past.  Walking tacos??  Our theme is something to do with music.  We do not have to go through the school for the food.  Nachos were a big hit last year.  Ms. Kent may have an idea of how many we served.  We did brownies for dessert last year, and it worked well.  Let’s keep everything through the food service to keep things simple.  

-We have qualified for a premium book fair this time around, so it will be bigger.  It worked really well to have library cancelled for the week last time, we will shoot for that again.  

-We will need to get the gym reserved and secure about 15 tables.  

-Recycle week in April: Going to put a reminder on the board for ink cartridges.  We are also going to do smencils, and markers as well.  What about recycled batteries??

-Walk-a-thon - Ms. Kent has brought up the idea of a Read-a-thon.  Would it be a conflict with our initial “one ask”??  We don’t want to confuse parents and the community about our “one ask.”  Should we consider a Buffalo Wild Wings night??  Emily will call them and set up a meeting with the BWWs person.  Mrs. Scheible will get us a reliable contact.  Does Pizza Hut do a Book It??  Amber will look into the Book It.  These will maybe be a better approach for this years reading month.

-We are also collecting Aunt Millie’s and Tysons labels.

Next Meeting March 4th at 6:30! 

To instill in all Riverview students a healthy self-image, a love of learning and the desire to achieve their best in tomorrow's world.
