A Message from Our President
Happy Fall Y'all,
It has been my pleasure to serve as the PTC President so far. It is really important that parents have consistent communications from the PTC and we are working hard to keep up with monthly newsletters, social media updates and parent square. All these avenues are going to be crucial to keep up with communications, but in addition to these efforts, a lot of the important information is shared during the PTC meetings. I hope you can make the October 8th meeting and get updates on PTC activities, expenditures, events, and more. If you haven't seen it, there is a Suggestion Box in the Front office. Feel free to drop a suggestion for the PTC to review during our next Board meeting and if appropriate, the general meeting right after. Also, reach out via the general PTC email anytime!
Warmest Regards,
Hollie
PTC Purchases and Contributions
The Furniture purchases carried over from last year have been delivered and installations are in progress thanks to the Amazing Hillside Janitorial Services team! Check out the new benches outside the Front Office, which replaced the white "temporary chairs". The Furniture also includes TK/Kindergarten tables, Large Fiberglass Umbrellas, and additional Round Tables for other areas throughout the school.
Parent Mixer - What a Night!
We held our first Parent Mixer as a result of parent feedback last year. This was a Social Event and included a night of dancing, live music, delicious grazing boards and more. Parents had a chance to meet other parents from their students grade and classrooms.
Thank you so much to our PTC event coordinator Angie for all your coordination efforts. It was a special night for all who attended.
