END OF YEAR CELEBRATION

The EVG PTO ends the school year with a year end celebration. In the past, it used to be a carnival. Last school year, we invited Steve Max (of Steve Max's Simon Sez Show), a professional Simon Says caller to do an assembly for the kids on listening and showing respect. Through a simple game of Simon Says, the children learned some important skills.

INDOOR RECESS

On inclement weather days, when they are unable to go outside during recess, children spend time in the gym, library or auditorium. The PTO has purchased and collected many age-appropriate games such as Chess, Checkers, Connect Four and Candy Land to be used in the auditorium or library during this time.We also supply the children with crayons, pencils, and paper for drawing and writing.

WHAT YOU CAN DO: Parent volunteers can help with the preparation and clean up of materials.

If you prefer to work behind the scenes, we need people to set up the cupboard so that materials can be put away and organized smoothly by the volunteers.

A few volunteers are needed to maintain the materials in the cupboard on a regular basis.

If you have games that can be played in a short time, in a like new condition, with all the pieces intact, please donate them to our games cupboard, so the kids can have more variety.
