Yard Sign Sale

8/13/2020 12:09 pm

Show your Owl spirit with a yard sign! Yard signs measure 24" wide by 18" tall, includes a one sided print and stakes. Each sign is $10. We hope to receive the yard signs before the start of school so pre-orders will only run through noon on Friday, August 14, 2020. Given the PTA spending rules, we are only able to purchase 150 yard signs at this time. This is within the amount that was approved at the May meeting to be used for spiritwear and other summer expenses before a 20-21 PTA budget is approved. If there is additional interest we will sell them again once we have an approved budget at the end of September.

Pohick Library Summer Reading Program

6/5/2020 10:06 am

This year the library's summer reading will be virtual. All materials and signup will go live on June 12, see the Summer Reading Libguide for details. Our YouTube channel will have our virtual book talks posted as well as a link to our Summer Reading Libguide. This year looks quite a bit different for our Summer Reading Adventure. It is completely digital and instead of coupon books, when they meet the various milestones they get entered in for a chance to win an Amazon gift card. Instead of a reading log, this year we have game boards. They can either read a book for each entry, complete the task on the game board, or some combination of the two. We hope it is engaging and fun for them!
