ACE PTA wishes to extend our sympathy to all the friends and family who have been touched by the flooding over the last two days. We personally know so many who have been affected. 💔 Because of this we have decided to postpone Fall Festival to allow our community to focus on helping those who need it most.
After we had rain most of the day today and another storm will be moving in this evening, it helped solidified our decision.
We have rescheduled Fall Festival to next Friday, October 5th from 4:30-8:00. We also will be setting up a donation area for any goods our local community may need to move past this tragedy. We apologize for the inconvenience but as always want to put safety and community first! We sincerely hope you will plan to join us on the 5th!

PTA BOARD MEETING NOTES
President Notes: We are so excited for another amazing year. Our PTA has a great line up of volunteers and events for the 2018-19 school year. We are looking forward to working with so many of you to continue to bring fun, family friendly events to ACE. We do host OPEN PTA Board meetings so if you are interested in joining, or just want to come see a behind the scenes look at what goes on, we would love to have you!
We are also gearing up for Fall Festival. This is our largest event of the year and we need a considerable amount of volunteers to make sure it runs smoothly. We are also in need of items to be donated to have in our auction. These can be items donated from your business, work place, or even your home. Many of us have gifts we received that just don't work for our home or family, but they make great items for our baskets!
Last year we had many generous parents who donated items such as: several dozen Krispy Kreme gift certificates, gift cards from local restaurants, pedicures, photography gift certificates, overnight stays, and more! If you or your business is interested in donating we can provide a tax deductible gift receipt, we post links and information on our website, the Facebook page, and even on flyers. Plus your gift goes a LONG way in helping our PTA funds programs like Bricks 4 Kidz, 100th Day of School Guessing Jars, Mother Son Game Night, and more!

Event Coordinator: We have some fun things planned for the upcoming year! If you want to help our PTA continue bringing fun family friendly events to ACE please reach out to our PTA Board. We are always looking for new ideas and volunteers! On October 19th we will be hosting our Mother Son Game Night. We are looking for dad, grandfathers, or father figures to volunteer so our mothers who volunteer can enjoy the evening with their kiddos. If you are interested in volunteering on October 19th, please reach out to Katie King at kking0412@epbfi.com
Outside Fundraising: We participate in Coke Rewards, Food City School Bucks, and Box Tops for Education. If you shop at Food City, please link your ValuCard to Alpine Crest. Our PTA earns one point for every dollar spent when you shop at Food City, and they in turn give us a check! Groceries and giving back! Win Win!
Box Tops for Education is hosting a sweepstakes! Schools have a chance to earn DOUBLE Box Tops rewards. To enter simply go to the Box Tops website, enter your log in information, verify you are earning for Alpine Crest, then enter the sweepstakes daily until September 30th! It's that easy! Click on the link below to be redirected to the sweepstakes page.

Volunteer Coordinator: We have some amazing volunteers here at ACE! With your help we logged over 700 hours towards our school last year. Even if you aren't a PTA member you can add your volunteer hours to our log! There is a black box on the left side of the main desk in the lobby. There are cards inside that parents/guardians/grandparents can sign in at each time they come to help at the school. Helping in the classroom? That counts too! We have our 2 Hour Tiger Power Pledge going again this year and we hope you'll join us by committing to volunteer at least two hours throughout this school year.
Hospitality: Our PTA is already working on fun ideas for the 2018-19 school year! We have set up the Take Them A Meal schedule to help make it easy for YOU to help us support our amazing educators. This is a once a month volunteer opportunity and requires only one commitment for the year per family.
