Teacher Appreciation Week!
Dear Parents,

Teacher Appreciation Week is right around the corner - May 1-5! We are collecting monetary donations to make this week a success. If you would like to contribute, please have your student bring the donation to the school in an envelope marked Teacher Appreciation Week and place it in the PTO’s mailbox located in the lobby. If sending a check, please make it payable to CMIT North PTO with “Teacher Appreciation” on the memo line. Also, if you would like to help with the planning or implementation of this special week, please contact Candace Salley at candace.salley@gmail.com. Let’s show our teachers how much we appreciate all of their hard work!!

Thank you for your support!

In order to help facilitate student learning during the simulation, we will need plenty of volunteers! Volunteers don't have to be financial experts, just adults who have an understanding of budgeting, paying bills, etc.

Please fill out the form below if you are interested in volunteering for this experience! Please feel free to send this form to family members, community members, etc. Volunteers can come from anywhere and do not have to be PGCPS fingerprinted to participate.
