Report from Design Day with Out2Play

Friday October 2nd was Design Day.

Out2Play came to PS 139 and met with students, parents, teachers, and administration to dream up ideas for our new playground! In case you hadn't heard, PS 139 received a $200,000 grant to renovate our school yards. The primary focus is on the Argyle yard but some sprucing up on Cortelyou will be done as well.

The students provided sketches which I will post here once they are scanned.

The recently formed (and still forming if you're interested!!) Fundraising Committee is hard at work on a plan to raise an additional $50,000 for the renovation. If you would like to work with this committee email christine.siracusa@gmail.com.

Campbells Soup

Just a reminder as the weather turns chilly that campbells labels for education is a program P.S 139 participates in. It is all soups, I.E chunky, select harvest, soup at hand, supper bakes and not just soup it includes V8 juice lids, goldfish crackers, any pepperidge farm products, spaghettios, prego sauces & swanson broths. You just peel of the labels, barcodes or lids and send them in to school with your child along with the box tops or put them in the P.A. mail box located in lobby.

We are now participating in:
Target red card, visit, http://www.Target.com/tcoe
Box tops for education visit, http://www.btfe.com
Campbells labels for education visit, http://www.labelsforeducation.com

Coming soon: Stop & Shop

All of these company's give back a % of you purchase in store or online to our school once you go to their website and register your cards. For more information visit their websites or contact me directly. Don't forget to ask family & friends to collect for you. The programs run all year every year so they can collect them all year including summer and then send them to you.
Thank you all for supporting P.S 139
