Dear Parents,
The JBE PTA welcomes you to the 2009-2010 school year! We hope everyone enjoyed their summer. The PTA would like to say “THANK YOU” for all your support. Last year we had a donation drive, cookie dough sale, Square 1 Art and Silent Auction as our main fundraisers. We appreciate each of you who participated. With your help we were able to fund our 2008-2009 budget.
To ensure our ability to fund all our existing and new activities for the upcoming school year the PTA has decided to offer 2 different options for your support. These options are Donations (all donations are Tax deductible and a receipt will be provided for your records) and the very popular Cookie Dough Sale in October.
With the money raised last year, the PTA was able to sponsor fantastic events throughout the year. Here are some of the events sponsored:
| Beautification of school and grounds ($3,000) |
Donuts with Dad ($900) |

As you can see, PTA plays a very significant part of your child’s day to day activities here at JBE. In order for the PTA to continue sponsoring these activities we need to raise $25,000 this 2009-2010 school year.
As always, participation in our fundraisers is optional. We appreciate any and all support realizing each family has different resources at their disposal.
In addition to the main fundraisers please remember to save your Box Tops and Ink Cartridges.
New subscriptions and renewals for the Beaches Leader will also be offered.
If you have any questions and or comments please feel free to contact us at anytime.
Thank you for all your support in the JBE PTA. We are looking forward to a fantastic year!
Sincerely,
