April 22 is Advocacy Day for SRVUSD PTA. This year the theme is “Raise the Base” which aims to increase the base amount of funding that every child in California receives from the state government. With panels featuring local superintendents, civic leaders, and legislators, this is your chance to advocate for what you believe is important.

Many thanks to our corporate sponsors who pledged their support to Alamo’s live auction fundraiser. Over the next several weeks we will be highlighting them in the Mustang News and on our social media channels!
We thank Waldron Partners for being a Supporter Sponsor this year and helping us reach our fundraising goals! Peter Waldron grew up in Alamo and lives locally with his family. Waldron Partners aims to fully understand their clients’ financial situation, including their goals, fears, and passions. They prepare families to build wealth generationally and explain how to afford what life has to offer. Their clients always come first. Waldron Partners delivers an honest, informed, and unique perspective to financial planning that cannot be found anywhere else.
Volunteers for next year’s board positions: Do you have experience in graphic design? Are you organized and enjoy event planning? Would you be able to write emails seeking donations and organize items received? We need someone to fill our graphic designer and auction committee roles for next year! These important events cannot take place without volunteers to run these programs. Please reach out to alamo.edfund@srvef.org to hear about what positions are available or fill out our Google form to indicate your interest. Thank you for your consideration.
We are holding a *quick* 10 minute, Google Meet general association meeting to vote on our proposed slate of officers and directors for next year. Please join us Wednesday, April 20th, at 8:05 am to cast your vote. You can view the proposed slate here.
