BOX TOPS/SHOPAROO COMMITTEE: Do you buy products from brands like Ziploc, Land O’ Lakes, Annie’s, General Mills and Hefty? If so, don’t forget to cut the pink Box Top labels from the boxes put them in a labeled bag/envelope and send them to school in your child’s backpack. It’s an easy way to earn money for Ivy Hill!
We are happy to announce that Ivy Hill will be receiving a check for almost $500 from all of your Shoparoo receipts. Please remember to keep scanning!

Back by popular demand!!! Our “Stress Free Fundraiser” was so successful last year, that we are doing it again this year! You should have received the flyer through back pack mail today. This year, it is the only fall fundraiser we are doing, so please consider participating! Like last year, we are striving for each family to donate 3 hours of your time and $30 towards our fundraising efforts. Our PTA sponsors many great activities throughout the year and we can’t do it without your time and money! Remember all donations towards our Stress Free Fundraiser are tax deductible, and 100% of the money you donate will go towards the great activities sponsored by our PTA! If you have any questions, please contact Suzanne Krause at svkrause@hotmail.com.
