As we wrap up the 2016-2017 school year, I want to thank Claire Shaughnessy for all her hard work as PTSA President for the last two years. She has done a tremendous job of running the PTSA and setting the path for continued success with the PTSA next year for the new incoming board. A similar thanks to all outgoing board and committee chairs as well. This group of dynamic people has worked hard to provide meaningful support to our school and to make our children’s middle school experience the best it could be. I am looking forward to working with the incoming board and committee chairs (and many volunteers) to continue the legacy of PTSA success that Claire and her board have created.If you are interested in helping to support our school next year, please consider volunteering for a committee (especially prep day committee!) or taking the lead on a specific project. I am particularly looking for a Communications chair to help coordinate our PTSA communications. I also need point persons for the following special projects: Campus Tile Project, Reflections Art Program, Energy Troopers, and UC Cluster Liaison. The time commitment is not extensive (e.g. you do not have to attend monthly board meetings!) and much of the groundwork has already been done. Email me for more information.
If there is a project or event you would like to see the PTSA take on, please don’t hesitate to send me your ideas and suggestions. We will continue to keep you informed of all things PTSA through our Stay Connected email blast, our website, and our Facebook page, so be sure to read them and stay abreast of all current news and announcements.
Have a safe and wonderful summer break and we’ll see you all at Prep Day on August 22nd!
Jenny Goodman
PTSA President (2017-18)
