Dutch Neck Event Updates
December 11th
Thanks to Dexter’s Emporium Planning Committee’s hard work and to our many volunteers, the event went smoothly and our store was almost empty! We had many happy shoppers, many bucket-fillers who either made cards or donated gifts for kids in the hospital, and many creative haikus!
Thank you!

Our annual Dexter’s Emporium is happening this Saturday from 10AM to 2PM at Dutch Neck!! Get in the holiday mood and enjoy warm apple cider as your kids shop independently for the people on their list without breaking the bank! Everything is just a dollar. Tis also a season of giving and the kids have the chance to make cards for patients at Capital Health and donate gifts! While you wait, as a family you can also enjoy creating Haiku together. All the Haikus will be displayed on the wall for all to enjoy.
Help us make this holiday event a success by signing up as a volunteer today at tinyurl.com/dexteremporium2019 Let’s make some fun memories together!!
**Please bring cash for ease of payment. Thank you!**

Dutch Neck had a very busy week last week! It was American Education Week where parents had the opportunity to go into their child’s classroom to observe what goes on in the classroom, all grade levels collected food donations in partnership with a local charity organization, we also had our book fair for the whole week, and Dinner with the Principals took place on Thursday night. We are thankful for the opportunity to go visit the classroom(s), for our wonderful volunteers that helped with either the book fair or Dinner with the Principals, and those of you who supported our school with your book fair purchases! Many enjoyed and complimented the food catered by Convenient Catering, grooved to the fun music played by Mr. Kovatch, and of course hung out with our Super Principals and Super Dexter!
Guests walked in to this fun and amazing decorations
Great job PTA! Was fun!

If you passed by Dutch Neck School in the last week, you would have noticed the flags and banner we had outside. November 11th, was Veteran’s Day. It is a day to honor our men and women and families who are veterans and active in service. Dutch Neck School and PTA is proud to show our support for their efforts and sacrifices. A giant thank you to Andria Bilotto Wirth and David Wirth, David is also a veteran, for taking the initiative these years to make this happen.
Such a beautiful tribute!
