Community Night @ Mama’s Pizza

CommNight

Join us tomorrow, Tuesday, October 9 for the CES PTO Community Night at Mama’s Pizza Express. Whether you dine in, take delivery or carry out, be sure to mention Cornelius Elementary as a percentage of net sales will be donated back to the PTO. And since we know Community night calories don’t count, be sure to try some of their delicious cannoli or home made tiramisu! Or both- we don’t judge.

You Can Still Help!

Couldn’t make the Backyard Social & Silent Auction but still want to help your school? We have two amazing ideas for you:

  1. Check out DonorsChoose.org to see how you can directly fund Cornelius Elementary teachers. They accept any donation amount and you see the direct impact of your dollars, including flexible seating, Robotics Club to promote STEAM learning, technology, new books, and so much more. There are even companies that randomly match donations, as well as a button to share on social media so you can encourage your family and friends to try to be as awesome as you are!
  2.  Volunteer at School! (*cough*Cougar Dash on October 25 *cough*cough*) Check out the Volunteer Page to see all available opportunities. In case you missed it, there is a great article about the benefits of volunteering here…

We look forward to seeing you around school!
