I hope everyone enjoyedSpring Break. It was longer due to the
furlough days but I think when we all get back we will be ready to go and
finish the year off strong. It was definitely a challenge this year with
the economy and the budget cuts but if we all work together we will get through
this.
We are still working on our board for next
year - we are in dire need of a President for the 2010-2011
school year. Without a President our PTSA could fold and we don't want that to
happen- please give us a call if you are interested or know of someone that may
be. It's a very rewarding position knowing that you are a big part of
helping out the staff and students and you will receive a lot of
information at the council meetings where Dennis Smith keeps us updated on what
is going on with the budgets.
We also need a 1st VP -this
person handles the Enhancement Education Program, Honorary
Service Awards and PTSA Scholarship, 2nd VP- Ways and Means- this year he was
in charge of the Ralph’s Community Service awards program, Reflections
chair and a Newsletter person.
We
will be busy in the spring as Hospitality plans our Teacher Appreciation
Luncheon which will be held on Friday, May 7th - it is in the planning
stages now andit will be aluncheon the teachers will enjoy.We will also be taking nominations for
Honorary Service Awards, Senior Scholarships are due and we will pick our 3rd
quarter winner for the Enhancing Education Program.
I
would like to thank the board for working hard this year to keep within our
budget and I am so proud of all of us to be able to provide the programs we set
out to do this year .
