Catalogs will go home on Wednesday.
New this year is the addition of cookie dough. We have decided to drop the incentive prizes, BUT at the end of the fundraiser, you will see Mr. E paint his hair yellow and add a cheetah spot with black paint for every $1,000 we raise! PTA receives 50% of Sally Foster sales and 40% Otis Spunkmeyer sales. Proceeds go to fund various PTA programs.

Registration Day Extravaganza
To kick-off Tierra Bonita's new paperless initiative, the PTA will be trying something entirely new this year. In the past, we've always sent home a "First Day Packet" that explained who we are, what we do, the programs that we fund to improve your students' school experience, and what we do with your generous donations. The paperwork in the packet allowed you to join the PTA, donate to support our school's programs, sign up for volunteer positions, and purchase school directories, yearbooks, and t-shirts.
This year, we are forgoing the First Day packets in the interest of saving money and the environment. Instead, we will offer sign-ups for volunteering, yearbook, directory, and t-shirts sales, and encourage donations during Registration Days on August 5th and 6th. PTA volunteers will be available to present information about our programs and fundraising efforts and to answer questions. Registration Day is your chance to join Tierra Bonita’s PTA, sign up to be listed in the student directory, order your yearbook, and sign up to volunteer or donate to support all the exciting activities we have planned for our children this year.
Please come prepared to spend a few extra minutes reviewing the information that we will have available and remember to bring your checkbook if you'd like to join the PTA, make a donation, or purchase yearbooks or t-shirts.
