CCE PTA NEWS

• We are halfway through the year and we wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude to so many of our PTA ROCKSTARS for rolling up your sleeves and offering yourselves - your time, your money, your resources and your skills - to our PTA. There are so many moving pieces to make all of the things we do successful. This organization is built on the shoulders of volunteers who spend their time on everything from building this newsletter so everyone stays informed to filling out paperwork, attending planning meetings, creating google forms and finding the best deals on supplies. If you’ve attended a PTA sponsored event, participated in a club, purchased spiritwear or engaged with one of our service initiatives, you have an actual parent volunteer to thank! Want to know who these heavy lifters are? Take a look and if you see them around, please thank them for how they are serving our school so well.

  
  

  As a reminder:

  • You will receive ONE MONTHLY EMAIL in your inbox on the first of the month for the rest of the year. So save this email for all of the February (and some March) happenings with CCE PTA!

  • All flyers are linked for your convenience, and if some of your links aren’t working, it may be that you still haven’t signed up yet to be a PTA member this year. What are you waiting for? We need every one of you to join for just $8 per person.

  • Make sure you are a part of your grade level WhatsApp group for event reminders and communications

We are looking forward to partnering with you this spring and finishing out the year strong. If you’d like to get involved, please reach out to the board at canyoncreekelementarypta@gmail.com. Everyone is welcome!

Gratefully,

Your CCE Executive Board
