Hey Pinckney Families & Staff! Last year, Box Tops transitioned from clippings to the new App, but they just announced they are accepting CLIPPINGS this year! Many products have the new tag for the App, but there are still clippable Box Tops on products in stores. This year PTO will collect and submit Box Tops for our school--we earn $.10 for every Box Top! The fall submission is around the corner, so we must have all your box tops by October 29. Please turn them into your teachers in an envelope (and please double check for expired Box Tops). We will make another submission in March so please continue to clip/collect those throughout the year. Thanks!

See you all at sweetFrog today, Noon-7:00 PM!

Stop by sweetFrog tomorrow between Noon-7:00 PM and 15% of your purchase goes back to Pinckney PTO! 🍦🤩

Motivational Monday!
The way we speak to ourselves matters! 💗Sometimes a simple reframing of our self-talk can make a huge difference in how we perceive ourselves, others, and situations. We have to talk to ourselves as if we are our own best friends... in kind and compassionate ways!

Hey Pinckney Families & Friends!
Today, we are launching our new Pals of Pinckney capital campaign! As you may know, the Park West Campus Education Fund (our school’s primary fundraising body) was dissolved this summer. The funds Charles Pinckney received from PWEF provided important resources and education tools for our teachers and students. As a result of the dissolution of the Park West Ed Fund, each school on the Park West campus will return to its individual fundraisers this year.

We recognize that now is not the time to ask our Pinckney families and children to sell door-to-door items or do large group gatherings such as “fun runs” or festivals.

As an alternative, Pinckney’s PTO Board and school leadership have established the “Pals of Pinckney” capital campaign initiative.

Basically, families and community partners are asked to make a yearly tax-deductible donation to the “Pals of Pinckney.”

This school year our goal is to raise $10,000 between now and the end of November through the combined support of community sponsors, parents, faculty & staff, grandparents, and friends.
These funds will purchase important new equipment, technology, supplies and staffing for our school so that our children and staff can adapt and be successful in the new learning environment we find ourselves in due to Covid-19.

The bottom line: This new annual campaign is designed to help make up the shortfall we face during a normal school year, and to help face the new challenges we have this year. Your donation goes directly to our school for an immediate impact. That’s it. It’s easy to donate directly on our school Revtrak website at https://pinckney.revtrak.net/pto/#/list A more detailed letter is being sent home with students and emailed to parents today.

On behalf of our students and staff, we thank you for your support!

Motivational Monday: Tip #2

Pinckney,
When faced with a challenging task, always believe in a growth mindset- the idea that with effort and hard work you can grow your brain and complete difficult tasks! Remember... it's THE POWER OF YET!

"You try to add but the numbers came out wrong
You tried to sing but you didn't know the whole song
You tried to cook but the food, it didn’t taste right
You tried to dunk but you didn’t get enough height.

You didn’t do it right now, but you’re trying you’ll learn how
You just didn’t get it yet, but you’ll get it soon I’ll bet
That’s the power of yet yet yet yet
That’s the power of yet yet yet yet yet yet
That is what you get with the power of yet!

You try to add and you get the right answer
You sing a song and you be a great dancer
You dunk a ball and you make the right letter
Everything you do you do you do it better
This is what you get “cause”
this is what you get “cause”
this is what you get
With the power of yet yet yet yet
That’s the power of yet yet yet yet yet yet
And that is what you get
And that is what you get
And that is what you get
With the power of YET!"
