NEWS FROM THE PTO

CURRICULUM NIGHT SLIDES: If you missed Curriculum Night, you can view the slides here.

ANNUAL FAMILY DUES: For those who attended Curriculum Night, you heard that Angell’s PTO funds enrichment opportunities that benefit every student, including field trips, school-wide and classroom supplies, special projects, and well-attended events.

We ask each family to contribute $125 per child as an annual, tax-deductible contribution that helps to cover your child’s share of expenses and helps us avoid needing per-event, per-student fees. More details coming soon!  

To make your donation, please Venmo the PTO Treasurer @angellptotreasurer or using the QR code included here. Please include your student name(s) and “Yearly Dues” in the "What's it for?" field. If you prefer, checks may be delivered to the office.

Thank you for your contributions and support!

SCIENCE OLYMPIAD INFO MEETING: Are you the parent of a 2nd-5th grader and want to get involved with Science Olympiad this year? We are getting ready for Angell’s Science Olympiad 2026 - and the program simply wouldn’t be possible without the support of our parent volunteers and coaches. 

We will have our volunteer and coaching information meeting on Wednesday, September 24, 7pm via Zoom (link coming next week). We will also be available for questions at the Fall Picnic - look for the yellow shirts. We welcome all returning coaches and any parents who are interested in helping us with our most successful year for WESO yet! 

If you can’t make the meeting, we will record the session and email it out. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out: angellscioly@gmail.com - Jill Gorsuch and Senja Tomovic, Science Olympiad Co-Chairs.

NEWS & NOTES FROM PRINCIPAL FENECH

CAREGIVERS OF GRADE 4 & 5 STUDENTS: Please read this letter - MSTEP Letter for Elementary/Middle (October 2025)

VOLUNTEER NEED TOMORROW (Wednesday) FROM 9-11 AM: I need one or two adults who are familiar with the building to help facilitate the movement of classes and kids into/out of the auditorium for Picture Day from 9:00-11:00AM. If you are available, please email me: fenechm@a2schools.org. 

ABSENT or LEAVING EARLY? A reminder to email ang_attendance@a2schools.org if your child is going to be absent or needs to leave school early. Including your child’s classroom teacher on the email is a fine idea, but the most important recipient is ang_attendance@a2schools.org. (Note the domain @a2schools.org works the same as @aaps.k12.mi.us)

MONDAY MORNING ANNOUNCEMENTS

On Mondays at 8:55 AM, every classroom logs into Zoom for our weekly announcements. I share upcoming events, birthdays, a student-submitted joke, an Eagle Expectation, and announce the winner of the Golden Eagle! Be sure to ask your child about these highlights.
