Take a look at our donations through August 2010:

Book Fair  

Encourage the love of reading... stop by the Sunset Media Center during the PTA-sponsored Scholastic book fair (click on the Calendar tab for dates)!  The PTA Scholastic book fair runs weekdays in the fall and spring.  Students will have the opportunity to browse the book fair and create a student wish list, and then return to make their purchases.  Want to buy a book or gift certificate for a favorite teacher? Teacher’s wish lists and gift certificates are also available at the book fair. Cash, checks and credit cards are all accepted. 

100% of the proceeds from the book fair go toward purchasing books for Sunset students.  We rely heavily on the help of our volunteers to make this fundraising event a success.  For more information, or to volunteer your time, please contact Christian Chamizo at  sunset_pta@yahoo.com.

PTA Store
With every PTA Store purchase you help support our PTA programs.  So stop by our office or place your order online today!

Boxtops for Education
The PTA collects boxtops from the students and submits them to Boxtops for Education (www.btfe.com) in exchange for money to support our programs.  Occurs all year.  Contact our coordinator at sunset_pta@yahoo.com for more information, or to volunteer to help.

Holiday Shoppe
With prices ranging from 10 cents to 10 dollars, the PTA's Holiday Shoppe is always popular with Sunset students! This is an opportunity for the children to purchase gifts for their parents, siblings, teachers, faculty, and friends. It is an exciting experience for the children and volunteers alike. 

Community Events
In 2010/2011 we spearheaded two very successful sports events: a Miami Heat Basketball game and a University of Miami Baseball game. They were a great way to enjoy an outing with the family and earn money for the school at the same time. Look for more events next year!

Also,thanks to our committed volunteer and chair, Sandi Speier, we also attended X-Factor as a PTA to raise funds for our school. Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul gave Sunset a thumbs up!

Pizza Nights

Every third Thursday of the month during the school year is Pizza Night! Your Sunset Elementary PTA receives 20% of the value of your dine-in or take-out order (at any of the four Power Pizza locations listed on the coupon). Coupons are sent home on the day of the fundraiser in your child's communicator. Enjoy great pizza and support Sunset students at the same time!

Back to School Supply Packs
Each year the PTA collects orders for back to school supplies, does all the ordering and fulfilling of the supplies, then delivers them to the students.  A great way for parents to avoid all of the summer supply shopping.     

TCBY - Yogurt Wednesdays  

Every Wednesday is Sunset Wednesday at TCBY.  Stop by and pick up a yogurt and our school will get back 10% of your sale.
