In this issue: Winter Carnival, Dandelion Kids Shopping Night, Family Cultural Night Initial Planning Meeting, Holidaze Party Sign Ups, Cookie Table Sign Ups, Update about December PFO Meeting, Appreciation for Donations for Grateful Bread, and Survey Request for Science Fair

	Our greatest need for support this week is volunteers for our Winter Carnival, this Friday, Dec 5, 6 - 8 PM! Sign up here: Most of the shifts are only 45 minutes, allowing you to enjoy the event with your family and friends. After today's weather we should all be feeling the festive winter spirit!  If you plan to attend the Winter Carnival, pre-registration is available here through Thursday. Tickets will also be available at the door; however, our cookie decorating is limited and pre-registration secures your child's cookie.
Join us next weekend for a Shopping Day at Dandelion Kids to benefit DEPFO. Details here and on our public facebook post. Please spread the word and join us on Dec 14th!
Sign Ups for the Holidaze Party on Monday, Dec 22 are now live her. Please be generous with your time. You must have clearances on file with the district.
	Thank you to everyone who contributed for Grateful Bread! I heard from many teachers and staff that they appreciated this warm send-off for the Thanksgiving Break. Thanks to Natalia Sasnow for coordinating the donations & making signs.
We want to end 2025 on a sweet note! Please consider contributing to our effort to assemble a "Cookie Table" for the Dormont Elementary Staffulty in advance of the Winter Break. Donations collected on Dec. 17 for display Dec. 18. Details and sign up is here.
Please complete our Science Fair Survey to help inform our plans for next year's event.
Lastly, our meeting tonight, Tues, Dec 2, at 7 PM, will be held remotely via Google Meet. Please join us. Agenda here.
