Last year we saw so much amazing artwork submitted for our yearbook cover contest! This year we’d like to give everyone the opportunity to be on the cover!

Instead of offering a full cover spread to one or two students, we would love to create a collage of ALL of our drawings put together. We’re asking for each student to draw a single, simple drawing that they feel represents Chinook. It may be an object, person, word, whatever they choose, as long as it’s school appropriate and makes them think of their school. We can’t wait to see what they come up with!
**To be clear, this will not be a full cover they’re drawing, but an item or two to contribute to the cover collage.

We are on a tight deadline to get our cover submitted, so all drawings will need to be sent in by January 20. The sooner the better!
Please email a clear picture to chinookptsayearbook@gmail.com with the subject line titled Yearbook Cover, adding the student’s name and teacher in the email so they can be recognized in the yearbook.

Thank you! 💙🐺

We are so excited to offer Chinook PTSA’s biggest event of the year!!

December 11, 2020, 5:00-7:30 pm To help manage traffic in the parking lot, we ask that you plan to come at the time listed, according to the first letter of your family’s last name:

A-B 5:00-5:20

We are asking for a $5 per car donation.

Optional extras: $5 raffle tickets for basket of goodies, $2 Smencils, $20 payback books also available.

To minimize personal contact, please have exact change, cash only.

Let’s get in the spirit of giving!!

We will be partnering with VPS Community Outreach to help fill food boxes for VPS families over Winter break by collecting shelf-stable pantry items . Everyday and holiday food items like pancake mix and syrup, cereal, soups, mac n cheese, stuffing, canned fruits and vegetables, crackers, and kid-friendly snacks would be wonderful choices. To make it extra fun, let your child choose a snack to donate!

Each child will receive a fun gift from the PTSA as well as an age-appropriate book from VPS Community Outreach!

Show us your holiday pizzaz! We are looking for volunteers to decorate their trunks/cars for a best decked car contest! Come park and wave as the parade of wolf pups pass through the parking lot. Each passing car will get to vote for their favorite festive car. The car with the most votes will receive a prize!

Even if you don’t want to enter the contest, all cars are encouraged to get festive! We would love to see your cars all decked out as you drive around the loop to see Santa and Mrs. Claus.

We need a little help! Please sign up to help with the event if you are able https://www.signupgenius.com/go/60b0949abab22a1fb6-santas

If you have any spare decorations around your house you no longer want and would like to donate for decorating this event, please contact chinookptsatreasurer@gmail.com.

We hope to see you all there! We miss your smiling faces!
