Spring Plant Sale - Orders Due by April 12!

Please see this year's Spring Plant Sale flyer! If your family attends Cooper, you will find the order form on a blue double-sided sheet of paper.

All items are listed in our online PTA store this year if you'd like to pay by Credit Card.

Anyone is welcome to order, you do not have to be a Cooper Family!

If you like a particular color, flower, herb, vegetable, or landscaping plant and don't see it listed, we do have a "secret menu" :) Please reach out to Bridget Moore at plantsale@jfcooperpta.org for availability and pricing.

Thank you for your support!!

STEAM Fair - April 20th!

 Hi Everyone,

This is just a reminder for our upcoming STEAM Fair on April 20th! (STEAM = Science, Technology, Art, Engineering, and Math)

We'd love for your child to participate if they'd like!

Here is the registration link. The packet was also sent home on blue paper. 

You can also print another one if needed here: STEAM Fair Info Packet

This is a non-judged fair and has been enjoyable for both participants and attendees in the past.

If you need some links for ideas, or would like to borrow any books with ideas - just reach out.

Fair Funding - Great News!

 Just wanted to share the GREAT NEWS in case you have not heard.

Governor Murphy's proposed budget includes $36,377,427 for Cherry Hill schools! That's an increase of 22.9% or $6,787,979 over last year!

This money will make a huge difference for our students and staff.

You can help ensure we get this amount from the legislature by supporting our Tuesday Tweet campaign on March 14 and 28th.

Send a tweet, an email or call your legislators on those dates and tell them how important this money is to Cherry Hill Schools.

THANK YOU to Laurie Deitch, Ilana Yares and the Fair Funding Committee members for all their work!!
