PTA’s Seedling Fundraiser Announced

The Woodlin PTA 2023 Spring Seedling Sale takes place from Jan. 27- Feb .12. The Woodlin ES PTA is trying this new fundraiser with NextGenTreesUSA. 

This is a great opportunity to connect children with nature by planting native trees, help reforest our community’s next generation of trees, and raise funds for PTA programs.

  • Seedlings are $10 each, and about 65% of proceeds return to our PTA. 
  • Go to our school link to buy as many native trees (Northern Red Oak or Red Mulberry) as you wish. 
  • We’ll contact you in March-April when your seedlings are ready for pick up. (Pick up is TBD and will be somewhere central in our community.)

Information is in this flyer (pdf).

Thanks for a Great Dash!

Friday, October 21, was a great day for the Dash of the Runaway Wizards! The kids ran, the teachers joined and encouraged them, and families came out to cheer and volunteer! Together, we’ve raised almost $34,000 for the Woodlin PTA. 

These funds allow us to host assemblies and artist residencies like Beech Tree Puppets, provide teacher and grade-level funds, and hold fun community-building events like Movie Night and the upcoming Outdoor Family Dance on Saturday, November 12th. We’re working on plans for an amazing Earth Day celebration, STEM Day, and a wonderful Spring Fair in May. All of your contributions large and small make these things possible.

Thank you

Please Join the PTA

All Woodlin families are welcome and have access to all PTA events, programming, and activities regardless of membership in the PTA.

Annual membership dues are at a suggested amount of $20 per family or $12 per individual (teacher, community member, grandparent), but we welcome you to pay what you can, with a minimum of $5 to cover our state and local fees. Our goal is to foster participation and inclusion.

For those new to our school, the Woodlin PTA is an all-volunteer organization of parents, guardians, family members, teachers, and staff working together on behalf of our children. We work to 1) provide academic enrichment programs to all students; 2) host community-building events for all to enjoy; 3) advocate on behalf of the school’s needs at the local, county, and state levels; and 4) raise funds to support the school, teachers, and staff.
