Cornelius Elementary PTO

The CES Fall Book Fair is here, starting Monday, October 16 and ending Friday, October 20. Students will preview books Monday and Tuesday where a wish list will be completed and sent home. Classes will return to the fair on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday to make purchases. Your child’s teacher will provide you with your child’s preview and purchase times. If you choose, you may send a check with your child made out to “Cornelius Elementary PTO” and he/she will be able to purchase books when they visit with their class. If you prefer to send cash, please seal it in an envelope labeled with your child’s name, teacher’s name and amount enclosed. Our online book fair will be open October 20-November 9. CLICK HERE to place orders on-line and all orders will benefit our school.

It only takes a minute, but it brings in cash for the school every year.  If you haven’t already linked your Harris Teeter VIC Card to Cornelius Elementary, please take a minute to do it now.  It’s not too late to earn for our school!

Here’s more information:

Harris Teeter contributes a percentage of all HT brand purchases to the Cornelius Elementary TIE account when your VIC card is linked to our school. Here are two easy ways to link your VIC card:

• visit your Harris Teeter store and ask your cashier to link your card to #1910.

• Link your card online by CLICKING HERE

It’s that easy!  If you have any questions, please contact us.  Thank you!

Calling all CES Moms!

Please join us on Thursday, October 19 at Alton’s Kitchen & Cocktails in Cornelius. It’s going to be a fun night of mingling while enjoying great apps and dinner.  Alton’s is very generously donating a portion of food sales from this evening back to the school.  Enjoy a great night out and support the school – – it’s a win-win!

Be sure to be Batty for Box Tops!

Our Fall Box Tops collection contest ends this Friday, October 13th. The class in each grade level who collects the most box tops will win an EXTRA RECESS!  Please send in your Box Tops in a ziploc bag or envelope labeled with your child’s teacher’s name.

The school earns $.10 per box top, and it adds up very quickly!  Even if you only have a few, please send them in to school.  Thank you for your support!
