Summer Update 06.20.20
Back & Better Than Ever!
.....but please be flexible and have grace as we navigate the upcoming school year and uncertain plans.
The Northern Hills PTO is working to make plans for all our favorite Husky Pup events and programs for the 2020-2021 school year, but we are also planning for the unexpected and unknown. We will be flexible and ask all our Husky Pup Families to also be flexible and gracious as we work together to make this the best year possible for our students, faculty and staff!
We have many options to keep our families connected and push out information, reminders, change notices and updates. Please make sure you are connected and looking for these messages via email and social media.
We miss all our Husky Pup students and families and look forward to seeing you in August!

FUN-draising Parties
Back to school swim parties
What is a FUN-draising party? It’s a parent or teacher hosted festivity where your admission price goes directly to PTO to fund things our school needs. This summer, each grade level has a group of parents who have generously agreed to host a “Going into Kinder, 1st, 2nd, etc” party. These parties will all take place in August before school starts and gives our husky pups a chance to see old friends, meet new friends and get excited for this new school year.
Tickets are $10 per student for these parties and are still available for purchase on the PTO Online Store!
Visit the PTO Online store at
https://northernhillspto.square.site/
**If parties are cancelled due to COVID-19 concerns, refunds will be available upon request.**

PTO Monday Memo Emails
During the school year, look for a PTO Monday Memo each week with important information on upcoming events, volunteer opportunities, and sign-up links. This is your go-to spot for all the latest info in one place. The emails will come from "Northern Hills Elementary" and are pushed out to all currently enrolled students at the email addresses entered for each student in the Infinite Campus portal; no special sign-up or subscription required.
Text Messaging
Edmond Public Schools has implemented text messaging
service for parents. Text messaging allows EPS to deliver
important information about school closings, safety alerts,
bus announcements and more via SMS text messaging
through the School Messenger system-the same system
currently being used to send automated phone calls. The
process is simple and only takes a few seconds to complete.
To receive these messages, you must OPT-IN to the messaging service. Please text "Opt in" (NO HYPHEN) to 67587. By sending the correct message of “Opt in” (NO HYPHEN) you will get this message back: “You’re registered 4 SchoolMessenger notifications. Reply STOP to cancel, HELP for help. (etc)”.

to enable parents, staff, students and the broader community
to stay informed and up-to-date on important issues,
