Good morning,
I know it is difficult to see the value of your schools PTA while the majority of the school year has been virtual but your support is still needed. Please trust in the fact that your PTA is still working hard behind the scenes representing the needs of families and working on ways to support students and teachers.
The PTA has recently held the Halloween FlipGrid Challenge with prizes provided. Upcoming events put on by the PTA are Virtual Santa Shop, Virtual Scholastic Book Fair, Every Child Receives A Book, and Virtual Book Bingo.
Each activity, however small or large, takes a lot of planning behind the scenes. In order to make it all work we need board members (we are still short) and we need actual members. As of right now, we are still short the necessary number to be considered a functioning PTA. However, this has not stopped several parents from working on ways to advocate for you.
Please consider joining, if you have not already.
