From the PTO
Miltown Eats: The Richards PTO is partnering with Miltown Eats – a local home meal kit service. Richards families will receive 25% off new signups and the Richards PTO will receive $10 per family that signs up. Visit their website miltowneats.com to browse what you would like to order and enter the code Back2School to get the 25% off. This is a great way to ease the back to school transition for our families and raise money for the Richards PTO! Questions? Contact Kristen at lafond19@yahoo.com or Erin at erin.haan@gmail.com.
Richards SpiritWear! Richards SpiritWear is on sale now online! There was a slight logo change for Richards, so we will be selling our on-hand inventory (last year’s logo) at a discounted rate [S/S tees: $5, L/S tees: $7, hoodies: $15.] Log into your Membership Toolkit account to purchase while supplies last. New logo merchandise will be available to order online later this Fall. Questions? Contact Kristi at kristientwistle@yahoo.com.
You’ve Been BOO’D! A long-standing tradition in Whitefish Bay, a Halloween Boo is a little gift or treat left anonymously by a friend or neighbor. Once you’ve been Boo’d, you hang a picture on your front door to let everyone know that you’ve gotten your Halloween surprise. Let the Richards make your Boo Bags for you! Richards PTO will be selling Boo Bags for $5 each, starting October 1st, and will be available for pick up in the Richards Vestibule. Ordering details to follow!
The Richards PTO is looking for volunteers! Did you enjoy the drive-thru popsicles last month? Are you looking forward to the Book Fair? You have the PTO to thank for these events! PTO committees and their chairs make up much of the working body of the PTO. The PTO is looking for 3-5 volunteers to help plan socially distant/virtual events for our Richards community throughout the school year. If you are interested, sign up at https://www.richardspto.org/i-want-to-help or have any questions, please contact MaryKathryn Malaney at marykathryn.malaney@gmail.com.
Membership Toolkit/BuzzBook and Join the PTO: Don’t forget to update your contact information in Membership Toolkit and added your child’s teacher. To create a Membership Toolkit account or to login to your existing account, please visit https://richardspto.membershiptoolkit.com/home and follow the login instructions. If you forgot your password there is a password reset option. New and returning families will need to enter or update their contact information. Please make sure the email address associated with your Membership Toolkit account is one you check regularly. Every family at Richards needs an account. It’s free and easy to set up and will allow you to receive communications from your classroom Room Parents about activities, important dates, and information shared with the class on behalf of the teacher or the PTO, as well as order your yearbook, etc.
The BuzzBook is part of Membership Toolkit, but access to the BuzzBook requires a PTO Membership. BuzzBook access will allow you to view the student directory, including who is in your child’s class. PTO Membership is $20 and must be renewed annually. If you have any questions about PTO Membership, BuzzBook access, or anything else PTO or Richards related, the PTO is here to help!
