Message from the President
Hello Cougar Parents,
I hope you were able to rest and enjoy your families and friends over the Thanksgiving break. As 2021 comes to a close I thought this would be a great time to highlight some of the exciting things your PTO committee has been working on to support our Cross Keys community over the past few months. We've beautified the school's courtyard, dined out with Papa John's and now we are collecting shoes to help impoverished countries as well as earn money for our school. I have truly enjoyed working with such dedicated parents and teachers who share the same core values as I, and that is "community is paramount in the success and growth of our student scholars." In the coming months, I will be asking you to join me to support and encourage our student scholars to get involved and to give back to their school and to their community.
I look forward to seeing on Wed, Dec 15 @ 5:30 for our next PTO meeting via Zoom and as always...GO Cougars!

Shoe Drive Drop-off | Dec 18
Shoe Drive Drop-off | Dec 18
We are halfway through our 60-day Shoe Drive Fundraiser and our goal is to collect 100 bags (or 2,500 pairs) of gently worn, or new, shoes to earn $1,000.
On Sat, Dec 18, 10AM-2PM, we will be partnering with Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity to host a second Drive-up, Drop-off event to help us reach our goal. We want to give our Cougar families an opportunity to donate before our Dec 21st deadline. Please mark your calendars and come out to support Cross Keys Middle's PTO.
During the Nov 20th Drive-up, Drop-off event we were able to collect 15 bags (or 375 pairs) of shoes toward our overall goal. I would like to give a special shout out to all the amazing volunteers who dedicated their time to making that event a success!

Fall Beatification Project | Oct 10
Fall Beatification Project | Oct 10
At the start of the school year the PTO committee decided to "GIVE BACK" by cleaning up and replanting the butterfly garden in the small courtyard located near the cafeteria.
Our hope was to encourage outdoor learning and to give our parents an opportunity to beautify the school for both our students and staff to enjoy for years to come.
We received some amazing donations from our local hardware stores: Handyman True Value, Lowes and Home Depot.
We are hoping to continue these efforts by planning a Beautification Day in the Spring of 2022.
We hope you'll join us!
