Hello everyone. Sorry it has been so long. It has been a long dreary depressing winter BUT spring is on the way and I am feeling re-motivated. Spring means many things - like sun and warmth and playing outside and leaving the house without 45 minutes of boots, hats, where the heck are the gloves? etc. All of which sound really nice right about now...
AND -- this year spring means PTA elections. You see, most of the current board have been serving for 3 years now! That is one year more than they signed on for, but they stayed an extra year because of low interest from new candidates. That is too bad I say because, PTA is really an awesome way to get involved with the school, know the teachers and the staff, know all the things that are happening and have your ideas and voice heard on how we can make things better for our kids.
So -- my plea to everyone is to consider getting involved! All the positions are open- that means President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer and Enrichment Director. And all of these positions can be co-held so that the time and responsibilities are shared.
I have had a great time working as co-secretary and look forward to more!
I am going to use this blog to outline the different roles and responsibilities and highlight some of the Good Things that PTA does - just in case you did not already know. So by the time we get to next Wednesday nights meeting you will be totally prepared to come and seek a nomination! ( March 9 at 7pm hint hint)
So tune in tomorrow when I will cover the President!!
Carin
