Welcome PTA President's Letter
Hi Eagles!
I am honored to serve English Landing as the PTA President for the 2023-2024 school year. It's going to be a fun, busy school year with plenty of opportunities to be involved and support our Eagles!
Classroom parties, Bike Night, the Scholastic Book Fair and Popsicles in the Park are just a few of the events ahead of us. These events wouldn't be successful without the amazing families that have given (and are giving) of their time and efforts to serve our school and our students.
If you haven't already signed up, we invite you to join our PTA family to support English Landing's students and staff! Your $10 membership helps fund PTA programs, purchase classroom resources, provide EL shirts for all students, and so much more!
Please click HERE to join.
We are excited to launch our Eagle Dash FUNdraiser on September 21, 2023. Our goal to raise $16,000 to fund field trips for 2023-24, fund PTA programming and help purchase a rock climbing wall for the school.
Our first PTA meeting of the year will be on Monday, September 11, 2023 at 6:30 pm in the EL Media Center. We'd love for you to attend!
