Don’t miss this wonderful way to kick off your evening of giving with our Enatai community.

The Toast to Enatai is a "Parents Night Out" party fundraiser and is the biggest PTSA fundraiser of the year to help achieve our $100,000 goal by June. We use the funds raised to pay for important items like:
- Reading & Math instructional aides ($60,000) to help extend and support students in Reading and Math
- Curriculum Enhancement ($25,000) which includes Field Trips, assemblies, special guest speakers, and more.
- The YMCA Recess program ($12,000), which has been an incredible help keeping kids engaged (and therefore out of trouble) at lunch recess.
- Library books ($5,000) to help our library stay up to date with materials.
- And many more fun and engaging programs with smaller budgets, like Science Fair, Art Docent, Reflections Art Contest, Variety show, Multicultural night, Movie night, Welcome back coffee, Teacher appreciation and much more!
At the Toast To Enatai, you will have opportunities to sign up to attend parent hosted parties like a Wine Tasting Party, Ladies' Bunco Night, and Minute To Win It. We will also have Teacher Experiences for your child like Teacher Of The Day, Game Day and Movie Day!
There will also be a short live auction featuring items like “Name the Playground" and "Principal for the day". Enjoy appetizers, drinks, music and meeting fellow Enatai parents. Make this a date night, mom’s night, or dad’s night and enjoy a fun night out celebrating and supporting Enatai!
Please click here to sign up to volunteer at the next Movie Night - TONIGHT!! January 5, 6:00-8:00 p.m. The Wizard of Oz (1939) is the featured attraction. Rated “G” for general audiences, the film ranks #6 on the American Film Institute's (AFI) list of "100 Greatest American Films".
The Wizard of Oz features Judy Garland singing the unforgettable “Over the Rainbow,” considered by AFI to be the greatest movie song of all time.
Fun surprises are always in store at Movie Night! Enjoy fresh hot popcorn, licorice and bottled water from the snack bar. Bring blankets and pillows. Chairs are available, but you may also bring your own. Please keep your folding high-back chairs on the perimeters. This is a family event. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Admission is free, thanks to your donations to PTSA.
Check out the review on commonsensemedia.org to determine if The Wizard of Oz is appropriate for your child.
On Wednesday, Jan. 10, students in grades K, 1, and 2 will have the pleasure of meeting author, Oliver Chin. Presentations for each grade level will take place in the library. Oliver Chin lives in San Francisco, CA with his wife and two sons. He is well-known for his Tales from the Chinese Zodiac series, Julie Black Belt series, and his newest book The Discovery of Ramen.

Congratulations to Jason Mitchell & Kimberly Lu, winners of the two Starbucks Gift Cards!
Someone asked me how I do the drawings... figured maybe others wanted to know too. I count the number of entries I receive, and head over to random.org and ask it to give me a random number between 1 and the # of total entries. Then, I count up from the bottom and email that person to tell them it's their lucky day. :)
