HELP US!
Join Us for the 2009-2010 School Year!!
Thank you to all the parents that have volunteered to help with the PTA. We are looking forward to a great 2009-2010!!
We still need more parents to help - we have a number of volunteer positions still open such as: membership, Fall Festival, SpiritWear, Pizza Bingo Night, legislation and grant writing.
If you are interested in helping Holly Ridge Elementary through the PTA this is a great opportunity.
The PTA needs many parent volunteers to be successful. Please contact Christine Pyne your

Dear Parents,
If we can get every Holly Ridge Elementary parent to commit Just 2 Hours to helping out, we can do amazing things for our kids and our school.
Will you please take the 2 Hour Involvement Pledge?
We've started using a program called 2 Hour Power that emphasizes that all help, any help makes a huge difference for schools. The research is so clear - kids at schools with a broad base of involved parents perform markedly better on all kinds of key school measures.
As you will see from the Interest Survey & Pledge Form, we would love to help you get involved in any way that works for your schedule and interests. What would you like to do? When would you like to do it? We would like to work with you to make sure all parents can pitch in. Involvement is for everyone.
We would love your 2 Hours, and -- Really! We promise! - there is no obligation beyond helping out in this small, but important way. If you would like to do more ? great, but we know that is not a fit for everyone.
Participating in our 2 Hour Power program is easy. Simply complete the enclosed Interest Survey & Pledge Form and return it to school with your child. We will then be in touch with opportunities that fit your interests and availability.
Together, we can make a huge difference at our school! As always, please feel free to call or email if you have any questions or concerns.

If donating by check, please make all checks payable to: HRE PTA.
HRE PTA Check Policy - We are happy to accept your check. Our fee for returned checks is the face value of the check plus a $10.00 service charge. All checks must include your home phone number and the names of your child's teacher on the memo line.
Contribute Goods Always a possibility - always open for ideas. Contact us!
No Frills
No-Frills programs are at no cost to you! It is a very easy way to help as you already use these products and shop at these stores. The participating companies are Box Tops for Education, Campbells, Tyson, Fast Fixin', Kroger, Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Target, Lowes, and Office Depot. (Please see the below links for your convenience.) We have set up collection envelopes outside of each classroom. Please send in your labels, milk lids, and computer ink cartridges along with your children frequently as we will be running contests throughout the school year. If you have questions regarding these programs or know of other companies that will participate, please contact me! Thank you!

You can often enroll in these programs directly at the cash register - just ask the cashier. Normally they will already have the school code on file.
