The Irving PTO is teaming up with Schoolhouse Kitchen & Studio to bring you these delicious and high quality baking kits for some at-home family fun! Place your order by Wednesday 5/31 at 10pm, and the Irving PTO will distribute at school on Thursday 6/1. Click HERE to order!
Did you miss your chance at the Fun Fair to sign up for these amazing teacher parties? No worries!! We still have a few spots left for each of these three parties:
Saturday is the DAY!
Come one, come all to the Fun Fair, and in between carnival games and snacks, don’t forget to stop by the silent auction and raffle area on the Irving “porch” outside the main office doors!
In this exciting corner, you can bid on a chance to be principal or teacher or librarian for a day, hit the museums with Mr. Packer, do nails with Ms. Gibson, or golf with Mr. Daniel. You can have lunch at Pete’s with Ms. Blackney or have Mr. Blecha come to your house to read bedtime stories!
And while you’re at it, why not take home a basket filled with the best Candycopia has to offer (plus a toothbrush!), everything you need for family game night, an instant Mexican fiesta, Squishmallows galore, or bubbles for your bath and your glass?
Some of these items you can bid on in the silent auction, some will be for raffle, and for some of the teacher parties, all you have to do is sign up. Oh – and you can help decide which Irving staffer gets a pie in the face at 3:30 too!
Cash or online payment via the PTO website will be accepted for baskets. Tickets are cash only and available for purchase this week and at the fair.
Irving’s Got Talent show begins at 1pm, followed by the Fun Fair at 2pm and a sensory hour at 4pm. See you on Saturday!
PS! We could use a few more 4th and 5th grade student volunteers – please sign up if you can!

This April, we are helping fight hunger with Beyond Hunger in their annual CAN DO Community Challenge, where local schools compete to see who can raise the most points (combination of money and actual food donations). Please support us by joining our team and/or making a donation! For every $1 donated, Beyond Hunger can provide 3 meals!
Items can be donated to the collection box in Irving’s main office throughout the month of April! Below is the list of 10 non-perishable food items worth 5 points each. All food donations will be weighed for a total number of pounds, but only the items below will count towards the competition.
• Jelly
• Peanut Butter
• Canned Chicken Soup
• Cheerios’ Cereal
• Canned Mixed Vegetables (low sodium)
• Diced Tomatoes
• Tomato Paste
• Bagged Rice (White or Brown)
• Refried and Dry Beans (Pinto and Black)
• Canned Pineapples
Beyond Hunger’s off-site pop-up pantry serves newly immigrant families and relies entirely on private donations. Due to the organization’s limits in space and staff/volunteers for sorting, they are asking us to please stick to donations off this list.
