Grade-Level Representatives
|
|
|
This year the main PTSA goal is increasing family engagement at the school to better our student’s experiences.
|
To do this, we’ve introduced Grade-Level Representatives for each grade level. They can:
|
- Answer your Cherry Crest questions
- Connect you to PTSA and school resources
- Introduce you to other families
- Work with Cherry Crest to spend PTSA resources to best benefit the students in each grade
|
Their goal is simple – help build a more enriching community experience for you and your student.
|
Please feel free to reach out to your representatives. To learn more about them, click here.
