The PS 39 Zippered Hoodie Sweatshirt
It's not too late! The PTA is still offering a classic—and classy!— zippered hoodie sweatshirt as a special-order item. The zip hoodie is available in the following color combinations: ADULT: grey with red plaid letters; navy with aqua OR hot pink letters; maroon with gold letters YOUTH: grey with red plaid letters; navy with aqua OR hot pink letters (NO maroon-sorry!) The price for each sweatshirt is $45 for adults and $35 for kids. Click here for the order form.  All orders must be prepaid. Please make all checks/money orders out to PS39 Parent Association.  Return your order form and payment in a sealed envelope marked “HOODIE” to the school (or a PTA member) *ASAP. *  

Lunch Room Volunteers Needed!  
Volunteers will help assist and supervise students in the lunch room.  All volunteers must attend a training and orientation workshop before volunteering.  Please contact our parent coordinator, Karen Herskowitz, for more information (kherskowitz@ps39.org).


Want to Make a Difference?...Run!
Do you have a natural curiosity?  Would you like to learn more about our school and how it functions?   Want to get more involved in your child's education?   Then consider running for a PTA Executive Board position for the 2012-3013 school year.  Elections are held in May, but now is a good time to start thinking about it. All positions are up for re-election every year - President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, and 4 Members-At-Large.  Officer positions can be filled by 2 people working together as "co-" if desired.  If you'd like more information about the Board and how it functions, feel free to email current PTA Co-Presidents Susan Moesker or Melissa Williams.

Kindergarten Admissions Info
The DOE's Kindergarten admissions process begins in January.  A reminder that you must still apply for Kindergarten even if your child is currently attending Pre-K at PS 39!  Click here to download an application or visit the main office.

Do You Love the 80's?
Remember leg warmers, light blue eye shadow and "Flock-of Seagulls-hair"?   Well, the 80's will come to life again on February 10 at Camp Friendship when PS 39 holds its first-ever 80's Prom Valentine Dance Party. Kids and adults are encouraged to dress in their 80's best. We'll have a DJ, crafts for the kids, snacks, and Karaoke! We are looking for many volunteers to make this happen, so please contact event chair Marilynn Doore (edwardsmum@gmail.com) to volunteer and for more info.
