Join PTO!!

Parents and Teachers: It's never too late to join the PTO!  We have over 190 families that have joined but would like to reach our goal of 100% of the families and teachers are members.  Remember, we will have a special surprise for the class with highest participation.  All the money we raise goes directly to our school.  If you have any questions please contact Helen Russell.  The PTO Membership Form is also available to download.

Box Tops Store

The Box Tops store will be open once a month on Spirit Day at lunch time.  Show your spirit and raise money for Satchel Ford by bringing in as many Box Tops as you can.  Box Tops are coupons located on the packaging of many of your common brands including Ziploc, Pillsbury, Betty Crocker, Bisquick, etc.  Check your pantry now!  The next date is October 14th.  Please have your child bring their neatly trimmed Box Tops in a baggie labeled with their name and the number of box tops.  Even one Box Top can buy something special!
