Middle School DISPATCH
Greetings!
Most of what follows was in the last email that went out, but I know we’re still missing several folks that way, so here’s a hard copy with a few new pieces of info. If you haven’t seen any emails, please email carlson03@sprynet.com with your correct address, and we’ll make sure you’re included on future emailings.
Pizza/snack info: Attached is the current listing of paid pizza orders. Please review for accuracy, and if your child’s name is in bold, then please contact Sally Petru with the correct number and type of slices. If you’ve missed the deadline of September 12th and still wish to sign your child up for Pizza Friday we will still accept forms and are willing to prorate the cost of pizza and drinks beginning with Friday, September 23rd. Instead of multiplying your weekly cost by 15, multiply by 14 for a total through January 20th. Make checks payable to “Hillcest PTA” and note “pizza” on the check. Submit your form and check to the envelopes located in the office or your child’s classroom. You may direct any questions to Sally Petru at 510.653.7727 or sal@hmnlaw.com.
Please note that the Middle School snack bar will be open beginning next week on Tuesday, September 20th. Snack bar is open every Tuesday and Thursday at lunch time for MS students only and offers snacks, ramen soup and drinks. Nothing costs more than a dollar apiece, so please bring small bills and change.
Also attached is information from the Middle School music teacher, with information about instrument rental.
The final attachment is the Middle School Financial Payment form, which was handed out at Back to School night. For some reason, we weren’t able to send it in the email, so here’s a hard copy. The idea was to make it easy to write one check for those who wanted to make a single payment per semester. The remaining amount of the spring field trip will depend on the fundraising efforts between now and then – the pizza sales, the See’s Candy Sale, etc. The check should be made out to “Hillcrest PTA” and deposited in the envelopes in both middle school classrooms, or the office.
The team building event at Lake Temescal last Friday went very well. The kids were split up from their friends and put onto teams and into various activities that made teamwork imperative. Thanks to Jan Leuin, Joseph Costarella, Rose Collins, Jesse Inclan, and Jim Gold for helping walk the kids over and back.

Middle School Parents Mixer: This Thursday night, September 15, from 6:30 to 8:30 at the Petrus’ house – 6167 Buena Vista Avenue. Please bring a finger food and/or beverage to share. Parents only, please – no students or siblings.
