1. Spirit Weekend at Playa Bowls is Happening Now!

2. Bingo Night is October 13th!
Bring a blanket or towel to sit on and join us as Ms. Egan, Ms. Deutsch, Ms. Bortnick, Ms. Way, Ms. Mirzayeva and Mr. Appel call numbers during Wayside’s Friday Night Lights Bingo!

3. It Takes a Village
Thanks to Ms. Hill, Mr. Rod and the entire Wayside community who came out to support the PTA spirit night at Chipotle! We raised $700 (a new record for us)!
Thanks to Helena Lopez for planning such a spectacular evening!

Thank you to Jun Chu for organizing a fantastic Walk to School Day!

4. Please be on the lookout for letters from your room parents regarding class parties!
Room parents are asking for a one-time, $30 contribution per child to be used toward all three of the class parties this year (including Halloween, Valentine’s Day, and the end of year party). Hopefully this one-time payment will be easier than asking for multiple payments as in prior years. The parties will be coordinated by the room parents. Your contribution will be used to provide snacks, crafts, games, and prizes for all students. It is our hope that all students participating in the parties will contribute. Logistics around the Halloween festivities will come soon.

5. MCCPTA Proposed 2023-2024 Advocacy Priorities Feedback
On October 26th, the MCCPTA will vote to adopt their Advocacy Priorities for 2023-2024. Please take a look at the the 2023-2024 Proposed MCCPTA Advocacy Priorities and email Deepa Narayanan at delegate1@waysidepta.org or Jing Wang at delegate2@waysidepta.org with any feedback by October 15th.
