The minutes were voted on and approved. Laura reminded everyone that the minutes from these meetings will always be posted on the PTO website.
- Treasurer Report Tori Collins $1000 raised on Giving Tues. We are still down about 30% on Capital Campaign donations. Families can donate through Pay 4 School Stuff. We received a restricted gift in November for Lego Robotics. Required reading sales were down in the month of November. Tori encouraged families to buy their required reading books through the school since we get money from these sales that goes straight back into the school.
