We hope you have had a good Thanksgiving Weekend. Thank you to those of you who attended this week’s PTA meeting. Some great ideas came up for future virtual creative/fun events for our kids in order to strengthen the sense of community during this time. Let us know if you have any ideas! We also discussed next year’s budget. At a later stage, the proposed PTA budget will be sent to all PTA members for review/approval.
Please see below for upcoming events and initiatives.
Remember, we are all in this together. We can do this!
Warm Regards from,
CHB PTA

Holiday Giving Continued..
Fulfilling Gift Wishes!
Dear CHB Families,
Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to the Thanksgiving Dinner Food Drive! In the same spirit, we are continuing our school’s tradition of fulfilling the holiday gift wishes of children who attend CHB, whose families are in need of a little assistance this holiday season.
Like our Thanksgiving program, the holiday gift program is completely confidential. If you would like to contribute a gift or gifts, please log on to Sign-up Genius here.
This year things are slightly different. All gifts need to be WRAPPED with a secure label identifying which family and child you are gifting for- ex. Family 1 Child 1.
All gifts must be dropped off this SUNDAY DECEMBER 6th from 11:00 AM- 1:00 PM at the Montclair High School Annex (Freshman Building)
Thank you for your generosity!
Sincerely,
Kate Bevilacqua, Alli Smith, and Anna Rothberg
