Volunteer Breakfast


If you are interested in Volunteering this year, please join us for an informational meeting on Friday, September 5th in the Cafeteria at 8:30am!

Lost and Found

Our lost and found committee volunteers are already hard at work to reunite items with their owners! The best way to ensure you don't permanently lose items is to label them with first and last name, and homeroom teacher if you have the space. We want to return your items...not donate them! Please label everything - jackets, sweaters, backpacks, lunchboxes, hairbows, books, folders, notebooks, pencil boxes, water bottles and anything else you send to school! 

Order your labels from Mabel's Labels and search for the Sunlake Academy fundraiser. The PTSO receives a small portion of those sales to put right back into school improvements! www.Mabelslabels.com


Your Opinion Matters!

Please take this short survey to help us plan this year's fundraising Gala.

Your Opinion Matters!
Book Fair

Our first Scholastic Book Fair of the year is coming September 8–12!

  • Elementary students will shop during their STEAM and Art specials.

  • Middle school students will shop during their elective classes.

✨ New this year: The Book Fair will be open on Thursday, September 11, from 5–7pm so parents can shop, too! This special evening event will run alongside our Grandparents Day Celebration and is open to those attendees as well.

You can also shop online or set up an eWallet for quick, cash-free checkout through our Book Fair Homepage. https://www.scholastic.com/bf/sunlakeacadofmathscience1   

Volunteer Opportunities!

If you would like to volunteer this year, keep an eye on the volunteer opportunities section of our website! We will have sign ups linked on that page when available, as well as sharing the links through Facebook and emails.

Box Tops for Education


Did you know you can help our school earn money every time you shop? Simply download the Box Tops for Education app and start earning by scanning your receipts. Even easier—if you connect your Walmart app, Box Tops will automatically track your eligible purchases with no extra steps! 




There are so many easy ways to support our school! When you shop participating products, a portion of your purchase is donated back to us. Plus, monthly bonus offers can help boost donations even more. And here’s a simple way to make an immediate impact—if you use the QR code in this newsletter to sign up by 9/30, our school will receive a $5 donation just for your registration!  

September 26th we will kick off our Raise Craze Kindness Fundraiser! 
Look for sign up information and details on school wide acts of kindness, 
the Kindness Carnival, and more coming soon! 

We appreciate our Business Sponsors!

We are so grateful for the support of our local business partners — our work wouldn’t be possible without them! When you visit these businesses, please take a moment to join us in saying “Thank you!”
