Father-Daughter Winter Ball

We are excited to announce our fourth annual Father Daughter Dance - Fundraising Event!  

Calling all Princesses that attend Harrison Township Elementary and Pleasant Valley School are invited to attend with their Prince or Knight.

This year's "Winter Ball" will take place on Saturday, January 20, 2018.  The event will run from 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.  Light refreshments will be provided and a photographer will be on-site for photos.   

The cost of this event is $30.00 for one princess and her chaperone, $10.00 for second princess and $5.00 for each additional princess attending.  

Tickets will be available, on a first come, first served basis and online only, on the PTA website starting December 11, 2017.  This event is expected to sell out and tickets will not be sold after the deadline.

Any questions regarding this event, please contact FatherandDaughter@HarrisonPTA.org.

 



Thank you to those of you that have already starting sending in Box Tops so far this year! Our first submission is being sent to the Box Tops program, and our school will be receiving a check for over $2,000 already, including the remaining Box Tops submitted at the end of the 2016-2017 school year. As you can see, Box Tops does collect a significant amount of money for our PTA, and we couldn't do it without your help!!
 
As a reminder, I'm so grateful when the Box Tops are sent in to school already clipped, counted & bag in sets of 50. It makes sorting them so much less time consuming for me and our volunteers. Therefore, please send unexpired Box Tops, in groups of 50, with the bag or envelope clearly marked with the number of Box Tops, your child's name, teacher, and grade.
 
The Box Tops contest is underway, and one classroom at both HTS and PVS with the highest Box Tops total during the school year will win an ice-cream party in the spring!!
 
Keep up the great work!! If you would like to volunteer to clip & count Box Tops, please email me at BoxTops@HarristonPTA.org or copy/paste this link:
