Ezra Meeker Elementary PTA Puyallup Council 5 7 30

“Biz Town Jr Achievement: The teachers collected $6 per student to help with the cost of this field trip. Since the PTA paid for the bulk of this activity we deposited the money collected from students and used it to pay for the activity. Voided Checks: We keep track of voided checks in our accounting system so we can keep track of all checks. There was no money deposited with them. Student Planners: We reimburse the school for the planners the students in grades 3-6 use. The original amount we reimbursed the school for was too high. They wrote us a check for the amount we over reimbursed them. Event Start Up Cash: We take out $250 for events we will need to give change for then deposit $250 back in to the account after the event. With several events throughout the year this was done many times.”
