Thanksgiving Food Drive

Now through November 18th, Glenwood will be working together with all Millburn Schools to collect, assemble, and distribute Thanksgiving meals to those in need in our community. Please join us by donating canned and boxed food according to this list.

In addition to your donation of food, we are asking for a minimum cash donation of $5 per student so that we can provide each family with a ShopRite gift certificate to purchase a turkey, produce and other perishable food items.  

There will be collection boxes outside of the classrooms and a collection table just outside the main office. We will also organize car line collections during the event! Details provided on the food drive web page.

Chess Lunch Club Starts Soon

Whether your child is new to chess or an experienced player, all students are invited to sign up for the lunchtime chess club. Chess Lunch Club meets once a week, during recess on Wednesdays, for 13 sessions over the winter. Children will learn chess skills and strategies from our chess master teacher, and have time to play rounds with their Glenwood friends. The program runs from December 3rd to March 18th. Registration closes on November 26. Click HERE to register. 

PTO Membership & Class Dues

As of November 1, PTO communications will only be received by PTO members. PTO membership is $30 per year per family, and gives you access to the PTO website, newsletters, online directory and all our programs. Click HERE to become a member today.

Do not forget to pay your classroom dues. Separate from the annual PTO membership fee, these dues are collected for each child and are distributed directly to your child's teacher for classroom supplies and teacher appreciation gifts.
