Thank you so much for making our first ever Kennedy Middle School Online Auction such a success! Thanks to your generous support, we raised over $13,000 for Kennedy!!!

If you purchased a teacher wish list item, items will be bought and distributed to teachers starting next week with notes mentioning the item’s generous donor(s). If you purchased any larger physical items (such as wine, beer, or baskets), an auction team member will be in touch with you to schedule a pickup. If you purchased a Kennedy event, you will receive an e-mail to schedule those events. Finally, if you purchased any gift cards or certificates, we have three set distribution times. If you cannot make one of these distribution times, please contact us at auction@kennedycougarspto.org to schedule an alternate pickup time. Distribution will take place in the gym parking lot. Distribution dates are:

Wednesday 12/7 2:30-4:00 pm
Thursday 12/8 7:45-8:45 am
Wednesday 12/14 2:30-4:00 pm

The instrumental music students and Ms. Hopkins are excited to showcase what they have been working on this school year for you and our community. Our beginning, intermediate, and advanced band and orchestra students will be performing in the Kennedy Middle School gym on December 15th at 6:30 pm.

Come hungry for some delicious food and baked goods, and be ready to purchase a KMS music t-shirt or sweatshirt and some raffle tickets for the chance to win your favorite themed raffle basket! Doors will open at 5:30pm. All proceeds go toward Kennedy’s instrumental music program. We hope to see you there.

The holidays are almost upon us! If you are planning to get a Christmas tree or holiday wreath this season, consider going to Honey Bear Trees where Kennedy will receive 15% of the purchase price. Just bring this flyer and present it at checkout at any of their three locations!

The December PTO meeting will be on Tuesday, December 13th from 7:00 – 8:30 pm in the Kennedy library. All are welcome and encouraged to attend.

View the December agenda and the November meeting minutes.

Eat Out at Panda Express in Redwood City (in Sequoia Station) on Thursday, Nov 17th from 11am to 11pm.

You must bring in the flyer or show it on a smartphone for Kennedy to receive the 20% donation! If you order online, use code 221130 to make sure Kennedy gets the credit.

Hope to see you there!

We have raised only 5%, or $1,270, of our $25,000 target so far. To ensure your students are equipped with the necessary supplies and have access to electives and after school programs, the PTO needs your donations.
