Campbell PTA financial update as of 9/30

Hi All,

I hope this finds you well! I am sending my first treasurer report of the year in advance of the PTA meeting coming up on Tuesday (October 13). Since we didn't have too much activity so far this year, I've combined the July, August and September reports into this summary. The document has a summary page (pg 1) and then goes into more detail on the income and expenses. Here are a few highlights so far this school year:
Income:
  • $436 from the READ book fair that was held at the end of last year
  • $111 from the Brick's Pizza night
  • $597 of member dues and with that an additional $224 of additional donations
  • $103 from Silver Diner meals
  • $488 from Amazon
Expenses:
  • $179 for annual insurance policy
  • $200 for an ice cream truck for teacher appreciation
  • $47 for 5th grade supplies
  • $10 for support for the Campbell News Broadcast
  • $580 for outdoor classroom coordinator hours
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I'll also speak briefly about this at the meeting. And if you have ideas about how we should be spending money this year or any other activities the PTA should be involved in, please make sure to fill out a survey to share your ideas:

Campbell PTA financial update as of 5/31

Hi all, 

I wanted to give a financial update for the full year with my (almost) final report of the school year. First of all, a quick reminder that receipts are due next week (unless you've spoken to me) if you would like to get reimbursed for PTA expenses. I will be at the PTA meeting or you can drop them in the lock box by the front door of the school. Now, onto a summary of the Campbell Elementary School PTA (from a financial perspective). As I look at this list, I am so thankful for all the volunteers who have helped out this year! We've been able to accomplish a lot together!
Fundraising Highlights – Here are the total amounts we've made from all our fundraising activities this year:

  • $14,500 – Wetlands Festival (including expenses)

We were able to fund all of the following this year!
  • Outdoor Classroom Coordinator – We funded over 100 hours of Ms. Christy's time this year (hours for May and June still to come!)
