Presidents' Thanksgiving Letter

Presidents' Thanksgiving Letter
During this time of reflection on what we are thankful for, the PTSA would like to thank our comm(UNITY) for supporting each other and our school in so many ways.

After the challenges of remote learning and social distancing during the last 2 years, we have been rebuilding the PTSA. We have an almost completely new PTSA team who have enjoyed collaborating with the steadfast veterans. We’ve put a lot of energy into re-envisioning what the PTSA can do to fulfill our goals of student excellence, family connection, and health and well-being. We are so grateful for the many volunteers who’ve helped build our PTSA and carry out our events and plan for the many future activities this year.
