DPES PTA Buddy-A-Thon!

DEER PARK ELEMENTARY BUDDY-A-THON!

Deer Park Families,

Below is a message from our school’s PTA….

We are kicking off our Buddy-a-Thon today!  Please ask your student to show you the information sheet that was sent home with them (it is also attached to this email).  Here is a link to a short video that will give you some information about the program:  https://vimeo.com/803692762

Our next step is to ask each of you to take action TONIGHT by clicking this link:

https://www.themegablast.com/join/DeerPark

The link will take you to our school fundraiser website where you can register and set up your student’s personal donation page.  On this page, you can invite your family and friends to join our efforts by sending them an email and/or a text.

This entire fundraiser can be completed in less than 10 minutes!

So, please get started tonight… and send out 10 or more valid emails and/or texts via your student’s personal donation page so that they can earn their collectible Kung Fu Coop Keychains, Coop Lanyard and Drawstring Buddy Bag.  And with some donations, their very own Buddy and possibly some outfits for their Buddy!

Once registered, click the link at the bottom of your profile page that reads “Set my Buddy-a-thon Selections” to select your top 2 choices of Buddies and Outfits. When you reach your Awards Goals, your Buddy and Outfits will be reserved for you and ready on the day of the Buddy Stuffing Event.

This program is a great and easy way to support your student as they use their awesomeness to help our school! *Funds will be used to support the students, families and community of Deer Park Elementary through PTA programs and events including family engagement activities, teacher mini grants, student and teacher appreciation. *

Thank you for taking action TONIGHT to help your student help our school!

All personal information will be used for this ONE TIME program to support Deer Park Elementary School.  This information will be kept confidential and will not be sold, reused, rented, loaned or otherwise disclosed.

Changes to School Time and Dates – Hurricane Day Update

Hurricane Makeup Days and School Time change

 

Message from Pasco County website:

After consulting with the state, we have now confirmed that we will have to make up some of the lost student instructional time we experienced due to Hurricane Ian.

In an effort to preserve both the Thanksgiving and Winter Breaks, the District intends to make up the needed instructional time during Semester 2, so there are no changes to our calendar in Semester 1 and the Thanksgiving and Winter Breaks will be preserved.

Additionally, to make up the lost student instructional time lost due to Hurricane Nicole, Pasco County School Days will be starting 4 minutes early beginning January 3 through the end of the school.

The make-up time will occur as follows:

  • January 3, a Tuesday, will be a regular school day for students and staff. That means students will return on Tuesday, a day early after the two-week Winter Break.
  • February 20, a Monday, will be a regular school day for students and teachers. It is currently on the calendar as a non-school day for students and teachers, and is Presidents Day.
  • All Early Release Days in Semester 2 will be FULL school days. That includes January 11, February 1, March 8, and April 12. By shifting those days to full school days, we are able to make up the equivalent of two school days. The Early Release Days in Semester 1 will remain unchanged.
  • ADDITIONALLY Schools will start 4 minutes early for Semester 2 – For Deer Park Elementary the new start time is 8:06. This will start January 3 and continue for the remainder of the school year.
