This month, we are having a two day event, so please enjoy some delicious food on Wednesday, March 17th (St. Patrick’s Day) and/or Thursday, March 18th, from 3-9pm. Simply mention PD Fundraiser when ordering and 10% of your check will go back to PD. View the menu at Carnivoreandthequeen.com and see the flyer here.

Spring Book Fair – We are excited to be partnering with Anderson’s for our annual Spring Book Fair!  The fair is currently live and will be open for ordering through Tuesday, 3/23 – plenty of time to stock up before spring break!  Families can select home delivery (small fee), pickup at our local Anderson’s bookstore, or opt to have your order conveniently delivered to school.  As in years past, all profits will benefit the Pierce Downer school library. In keeping with tradition, there is also the option to purchase and donate a book to your student’s classroom library.  Teacher wish lists will be accessible on the book fair website.  

Check out the instructions below to place your order!  

– Go to www.abcfairs.com

    ** This is how your school earns profits on your purchase! **  

– Please include your Student and Teacher’s names

REMINDERS
 
PD Scholarships DATE EXTENDED – PD PTA is happy to be able to offer two $1000 scholarships to former Pierce Downer students in good standing who are currently seniors at Downers Grove North High School.  Applications are due no later than Friday March 12th, and should have already been sent to those seniors that are eligible. The applications and eligibility requirements can be found by emailing Jennie Amidei at jenamidei@gmail.com. All applicants will be notified of his/her result. The two recipients of the Pierce Downer Community Scholarships will be announced at the Virtual DGN Awards Night in May 2021. Good Luck!
 
Art Awareness – Although this year has been quite different, we would like to allow students to participate in Art Awareness, which is an amazing monthly art program that typically takes place in school from HOME!  We have a fun Art Awareness Opportunity for you to try. Even though there is a lot less snow now, please take a look at this art awareness lesson, and consider creating your own artist inspired snowman. Enjoy!
