We are definitely in the swing of it now. Last night was the first PTA meeting of the year and we had quite a good showing. Several new kindergarten parents joined us and we were lucky enough to see many friendly faces from last year as well. There was alot of information to share and plans to put into action. There is, of course, always room for more parents to become involved so if you missed the meeting fear not! You have plenty of opportunity to join in. And just to alleviate any nerves or twitches - coming to a meeting does not automatically sign you up for a lifetime of servitude to the PTA!! Seriously, there is no net hidden under the chairs to trap you. I swear.
Shout out to School Nurse Mrs O'Brien - our featured guest who had us all itchy with her presentation on head lice. Ick - nasty but very necessary!!! Thank you! We appreciate it when teachers and staff bring important information to us.
In fact you get another chance to catch a meeting on October 6th. (Wacky schedules this year made the first two meetings close together)
AND - Do Not Forget--------
Cocktails and Conversation is tomorrow night!! Friday at 7pm at the Swampscott Yacht Club.
Bring an appetizer or dessert to share - I am bringing possibly the tastiest snack ever thanks to a recipe by good friend Jocelyn Brown.
Don't miss it. A night out away from the kids - food, drink, a raffle. What else do you need?
See you there
