PTA POINTS
- MSU/U of M Change War Challenge! From November 4 through November 15, we will be holding a change war to raise money for the library. There will be a container for MSU and a container for U of M set up outside the front office. Add silver change and paper money to the container of the team you support to increase that team's total, and put pennies in the container of the other team to subtract from its total. So, the rules are: silver and paper add, and pennies subtract!
- Spirit Week of Giving: During the second week of the change war, Buchanan will also be collecting canned goods and boxed items for the Livonia Goodfellows. In an effort to have fun while doing good, we invite students to participate in the following spirit days:
Monday, November 11 - Hat Day
Tuesday, November 12 - Crazy Hair Day
Wednesday, November 13 - Pajama Day
Thursday, November 14 - Mustache Day
Friday, November 15 - MSU/U of M Day
- The PTA needs your photos for Buchanan's yearbook! If you have photos from any of our events, your child's classroom activities, or anything else related to Buchanan, please email them to pta.buchanan1@gmail.com
with "yearbook" in the subject line and a brief description of the photos (e.g., "Fun Run," "McGuigan's class," "4th grade field trip," etc.).
