The book fair is coming to Endhaven September 22nd through September 30th! Check out some of the great books that will be available at this year’s fair. For the convenience of all of our Endhaven families, our online fair is available 24/7 from September 22nd-October 5th through our book fair home page.

Endhaven Elementary Volunteers: Fall 2022 Book Fair Volunteers (signupgenius.com)

All volunteers must register annually with CMS. You can find instructions for how to complete the volunteer form here.

Relink your Harris Teeter VIC Cards or Enroll in Publix Partners

Link Your Harris Teeter VIC card to Endhaven! School # 5354 at the register or online. If you shop at Publix, you can also enroll in the Publix Partner programs. To enroll, join Club Publix. If you’re already a member, log in to your account and select My Publix Partner to search for the school of your choice. Remember to pay with the Publix app or enter your phone number at checkout each time you make an eligible purchase. Please note that you must take this action for Endhaven to receive Publix Partners earnings for your eligible purchases.

Shop Amazon Smile

Did you know that you can help raise funds for Endhaven just by shopping on Amazon? Yes, it is true and it’s as easy as adding a smile! The difference is that when you shop on AmazonSmile (smile.amazon.com), the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the price of eligible purchases to Endhaven. All you have to do is use the smile.amazon.com link and make sure you’ve selected Endhaven Elementary as your organization of choice.

Room Parents Needed

If you are interested in being a room parent for your classroom or helping to support a class without a room parent, please contact your teacher or ptaendhaven@gmail.com. Room parent duties include distributing a monthly email to your class families, coordinating supplies for class parties, and Teacher Appreciation Week!

Fifth graders will be fundraising for their End of Year events several times throughout the year. Please help support our fifth grade friends! 5th grade parents, look out for more information coming soon about the first 5th grade fundraiser.

EOG Volunteers Are Needed


CALLING ALL REGISTERED CMS VOLUNTEERS:
 
EOG Proctors Are Needed!
It’s hard to believe End of Grade testing is already upon us, but it is! This is a time when we really need and appreciate our volunteers. Proctoring may not be the most glamorous job, but we could not do this without you! You are critical to ensuring we stay in compliance with state and federal testing laws.
 
This year, we are doing the bulk of our 3rd-5th grade testing on May 25, 30 and 31, and we need close to 20 volunteers each day!
 
HOW TO SIGN UP:

Thank you so much for volunteering your time for our students!

PROCTOR TRAINING
All proctors must attend a brief training session prior to testing. Training sessions will be held in the Endhaven Media Center on the following days/times, and will last approximately 30 minutes:
– Friday, May 11 @ 12:00 noon
– Tuesday, May 15 @ 9:30am
– Thursday, May 17 @ 5:30pm
 

Please plan to attend one of these training sessions. If you are unable to attend at one of these times, I am happy to provide training at your convenience. Just send me an email with your availability: juliet.mckinney@cms.k12.nc.us
 
Whether you are able to volunteer for one test day or all three, your time and commitment to Endhaven is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your consideration! We absolutely could not do this without you!
