Temple Emanu-El PTO
Our PTO-sponsored religious school Jewish author/Jewish book read-a-thon was a big hit, and over fifteen participants read books with Jewish themes or by Jewish authors. The goal of this read-a-thon is to support students’ and teachers’ love of reading. Every reader will receive a $20 Barnes & Noble gift card to treat themselves to more books!
The ice cream social on February 2 was a lot of fun! The most popular ice cream flavor was cookie dough and the most popular topping was mini Junior Mints. The PTO was happy to see smiling faces and full bellies.
Purim is fast approaching, and the PTO will be running the Purim Carnival this year. If anyone is willing to help, we’d really appreciate it, as we want it to be a great time for all attendees; more hands would help to make it a success. Please let me know if you are willing to help (978.360.8298 or lisajoydesberg@gmail.com).
