In the trenches
It ain't pretty, but it does the job!! I am, of course, referring to the periodic head checks for lice that Northshore PTA performs. One will take place tomorrow, Monday Dec. 1 if enough volunteers can help. This check is done after every extended break to keep lice cases to a minimum at Lake Hills school. The next check will be Monday January 5. If you can assist with this one, your help would be greatly appreciated. Lice can affect any child and it is a lot of work to eradicate, so prevention is the best way. Prevention requires the help of volunteers. Please mark your calendars to help with this very important PTA function.
Christmas Reminders:
T-shirts and Cookie Dough order forms are due DEC 1ST!!
Holiday Gift Shop will be held Wednesday, December 17. For those new to our school family, this event allows children to shop for gifts for the special people (and pets!) in their lives all on their own. An envelope is sent home so that parents can help the kids decide who to buy for and how much to spend. Parents put money in the envelope and the kids come home with gifts already wrapped for extra secrecy!! At this point, Santa's schedule still looks like he will be able to make it for pictures that day, too! We would love to have plenty of happy elf-parents available to assist the shoppers, so if you can help out for part or all of the day, contact Becky Huttenga at 616.970.0679 or rlhut@sbcglobal.net.

Happy Halloween
Greetings everyone!
Northshore PTA wishes the school family a safe and outrageously fun Halloween.
Don't forget to GET OUT THE VOTE on Tuesday! It is your responsibility as much as your right.
Watch for details on Family Movie Night (which takes place right at Lake Hills) coming up in November as well as ways to help with Thanksgiving baskets.

Fall Updates
Hello everyone!
It has been a very busy autumn so far! We had a very successful bookfair. Many thanks to Tammy Davison, Jacque Hoffman, Nikki Hubert and all of the dependable volunteers who worked the event. Autumnfest this year was also a great event despite the not so great weather! Thank you Chelsie, Shannon and your many wet helpers!
This Friday all the product you sold for Fall Fundraiser will arrive at the school and be available for pick up from 3:30 til 6 pm. Remember, you must pay in full in order to pick it up!
Before you know it, Thanksgiving will be upon us, so watch the backpacks for ways you can help with our Thanksgiving Baskets. Remember, these baskets go directly to Lake Hills families, and with the economy this year, the need will be greater than ever. If you have questions or have a great idea for corporate donors, contact Annel Oltof.
If you have an allocation request, please remember to fill out the form available in the office and get it in the PTA box no later than Nov. 7 so that your request can be reviewed.
Finally, if you are reading this, post a comment or contact me so that I can gauge how this blog is being received by our members.
Happy Haunting!!
