Aloha Liholiho families!

On behalf of the PTA board, I hope you and your family are doing well during this ever-changing and challenging time.  March has been a long month and many families are in situations they never planned for.  With that said, below is a list of a few of the many resources available to families.  Please remember, we are all in this together and this too shall pass.  May April be a short pleasant month!

Stay safe and healthy,
Heather Florendo, Liholiho PTA president

Here’s what to do:
Between Saturday, March 14, 2020 and Sunday, March 22, 2020, find sponsors
who will pledge a certain amount of money for every minute that you read. Add the sponsor’s name and pledge to the pledge sheet.
• All reading counts, whether you are reading by yourself, reading to
someone else, or having someone read to you. Read as much as you can.
• Small pledges are appreciated as much as large ones. Sponsors can indicate a maximum pledge.

For 9 days, from Saturday, March 14, 2020 thru Sunday, March 22, 2020, READ,
READ,READ! Use the Reading Log to keep track of your minutes.
After March 22rd, total your minutes and collect your pledges. Place the Pledge
Sheet & donations in an envelope labeled with name & “PTA Read-a-Thon” and
hand it into your teacher by MONDAY, April 6th.

INCENTIVES:
As an EXTRA incentive, students who have the MOST MINUTES read or
DOLLARS RAISED will be the recipients of the following awards:
• The top 10 students with the most minutes read will have a yummy Pizza Lunch with Mrs. Small.
• The student with the most dollars raised overall will be honored as “Principal of the Day” and shadow Mrs. Small and run the school!
