Welcome to our first newsletter, The Bay Boosters Bi-Monthly! We’ll be sending out this newsletter to keep you in the loop of events and programs and any special needs or announcements. (It may not always release as a bi-monthly, but it sure has a nice ring to it!)
Boosters Meeting!
Our next Bay Boosters’ school-wide meeting is this Thursday, Sept. 24th at 3 p.m. in the school café.
Volunteer Time!
Orientation is scheduled for Friday, Sept. 25th at 7:45 a.m. There will be an orientation of responsibilities followed by time to complete and notarize the paperwork. Please contact Kristen Mitchell with questions at kristendialmitchell@gmail.com.
We’re All About Those Dads!
The Florida Dept of Education has announced a new initiative that encourages fathers or male role models to become more involved in the education of their children as a means of increasing student achievement with Dads Take Your Child to School Day on Wednesday, Sept 30th across the state of Florida. Bay Boosters and Bay Elementary have expanded on this initiative and are hosting Donuts with Dad on Wednesday, Sept. 30th and Read with Dad the week of Sept. 28th where dads are invited to read to their child’s class during library time. Look for fliers in backpacks this week! Here’s the sign-up link for reading times – http://vols.pt/6uoERm
We Are Running!
The first ever Bay Elementary Fun Run will be held on Friday, Oct. 23rd. Come to the meeting on Sept. 24th to get all of the details or look for backpack fliers very soon. If you can’t make the meeting, but are interested in volunteering on the committee, email us at info@bayboosters.com.

A very special thank you goes out to our 36 Bay Elementary t-shirt sponsors. The t-shirts are on order and will be distributed at the Fun Run for kids to wear at the event. If you purchased additional t-shirts they will be sent home through your child.
