Did you Know?

We are excited to share that Reading Seed from Literacy Connects will be coming to Lineweaver thanks to a generous donor who made a gift directly to the Lineweaver PTO specifically to fund the program.

A big part of making that happen was Mrs. Gordon, who not only volunteered to lead Reading Seed at Lineweaver, but also spoke with the donor and helped introduce the opportunity. Our teachers and staff see firsthand where additional support can make a difference, and we are incredibly fortunate to have people at Lineweaver who are willing to advocate for those opportunities and help turn them into something real for students.

Reading Seed provides one-on-one reading coaching for students in kindergarten through second grade, helping children build confidence, strengthen their reading skills, and develop a positive relationship with books. The program also provides students with free books selected around their individual interests.

This is exactly the kind of community connection we are hoping to build more of this year. Fundraisers, spirit wear, and restaurant nights all have their place, but every dollar someone invests directly through the PTO is a dollar we can put toward programs and opportunities without first asking our families to spend money.

We want to connect with people who are interested in investing directly in our school and the kids who attend it. In this case, a teacher advocating for her students, a donor choosing to support the PTO, and a strong local literacy program all came together to bring something new to Lineweaver.

If you or someone you know works with a business, organization, or individual interested in supporting our students, please connect us. Sometimes an introduction is all it takes.

Fry's Community Rewards

Did you know that last year, Fry’s Community Rewards brought in enough money to completely cover the cost of homework folders for Lineweaver students?

It is one of the easiest ways to support the school because there is nothing extra to buy. Once your Fry’s account is linked to Lineweaver Elementary PTO, you shop like you normally would, scan your rewards card or enter your phone number at checkout, and Fry’s gives back to the PTO.

Sign up online and search for Lineweaver under the organization name. Once your card is linked, just shop and scan as usual.

It is a simple way to turn groceries you are already buying into support for Lineweaver students and teachers.
