      Buzz Book Info

            
Next week K-4th graders will be receiving their personal data sheets for the ‘06-‘07 Buzz book.  Please review your child’s data, as you would like it to appear in next year’s book.  Also remember to indicate weather you would like your child’s information displayed. We would like signed forms back by the end of May. 
Please observe the following helpful hints to keep our children’s information safe:
DESTROY your old book when you are done with it.  

             DO NOT share the Buzz Book information with anyone outside the Hillside PTA community.

DO NOT send a child’s data via email to anyone.  Email is not secure.  Instead send the data the old fashion way (on paper) into the school to your child’s teacher or to the Hillside PTA Buzz Book committee. 

If you need to send an update over the summer please direct it to Ken Nevola, 49 Mt. Pleasant Parkway.  Thanks and have a great summer!
