View this email in your browser Hi JBE Families: Wow! Spirit Week and our Capital Campaign Kick-Off was so much fun!  I loved spending the day with our JBE family, playing on the playground and dunking our teachers. We've made great progress but still have a ways to go... The capital campaign is our new fundraiser at JBE this year where 100% of the funds stay right here at our school. We are looking to have 100% participation among families and teachers. Currently 75% of our teachers have given to the cause but only 20% of our families! Let's even the score! You can track our participation here! We are pushing to be at completion by November 20th so we can budget for the spring and next year.  All classes with 100% participation will have a popsicle party! You can read more and donate directly on our website.  Please note the following activities through the month of October: Thursday - 10/11 PTO Meeting at 7:30 am  Tuesday - 10/16 - School Picture Day  Sunday - 10/21 - Children's Day Festival in Park West! Visit our JBE booth and buy a Pelican SnoBall (proceeds go to JBE from their sales) Wednesday - 10/24 - JBE Spirit Night at Jim & Nick's BBQ Thursday - 10/25 - Early Release 12:25 Saturday - 11/3 - Save the Date - JBE Fall Festival: Plant Sale at the Greenhouse, Turkey Trot and more!! Are you looking for ways to get involved, we try to keep alist of ongoing needs updated on our website! I know we have quite a few more spots to fill in the front office and also helping our new librarian, Ms. Benton! Best, Erika Sprotti ptopresident@jbepto.org
