STAFF APPRECIATION WEEK is coming SOON!!!
March 25th-29th
Hello Dolvin Parents,
Staff Appreciation Week will be here soon (March 25th– 29th), and the Dolvin PTA would like your help in giving back to make this a meaningful event for our beloved staff!
As part of this special week, there will be an opportunity for you to contribute to a “thank you” gift card for each Dolvin staff member. The gift cards are always a big hit, and are sure to delight again! Imagine your favorite staff member’s surprise when she or he receives a gift card to spruce up their classroom or spend in any way they’d like.
This activity is completely voluntary. If you would like to participate, you may contribute to the gift cards for your selected staff member(s) by using the form found online at www.dolvinpta.org. Using $1 increments, you may contribute as much to as many staff as you wish (for example, $1 for Mr. ______, $2 for Ms. ______ and $3 for Mrs. ______, etc…).
After you fill out the form and attach cash or check payable to “Elizabeth McCrary”, please either send it back to school with your child or bring the form and donation to the box labeled “SAW” in the front office. This year we are also offering an option to pay via Venmo @ElizabethMcCrary73.
Please consider those staff members who may not be homeroom teachers but who contribute to the education and happiness of our children each day. There is no limit on the number of staff you may donate to for the gift cards. Also, please note that because we are appreciative of all of our Dolvin staff, a small amount of donations from staff with the highest donations may be redistributed by the PTA in order to ensure the all staff have a minimum amount on their gift card.
With each gift card the Dolvin PTA will include a thank you note listing all of the contributors, so please make sure to indicate the name of the student or family providing the donations exactly as you would like it to be written on the note.
Order forms MUST be submitted by Monday, March 12th. If you have any questions about the gift cards, please contact Elizabeth McCrary (ehardinmccrary@gmail.com) or Wendy Englehardt (wenglehardt@gmail.com).
Thank you,
Elizabeth McCrary and Wendy Englehardt

PTA invites Johns Creek Police to come for a meal
You might start to notice an increased police presence at Dolvin. Not to worry. The Dolvin PTA has invited uniformed Johns Creek Police to visit Dolvin for a free meal in the cafeteria.
This initiative expresses our appreciation to the Johns Creek Police for their service and fosters a positive relationship between the children and the police officers.
It will also make our school safer in a number of ways. Marked police vehicles in the parking lot act as a deterrent. Police presence on campus means faster response times. Familiarity with the layout of the school will make the police better able to respond to an emergency situation. It is a cost-effective and positive way to help make Dolvin as safe as it can be.
So stop by and say “hello” when you see officers eating lunch in the cafeteria.
