A Message from the PTA President - Julie Fretwell, October 2010

Fall is here, the weather has cooled down and it’s getting dark earlier! Well, the weather cooled down for a couple of days anyway. Hopefully everyone has gotten back into the school routine! We had a great time at the Welcome Back BBQ. Thanks go to Elizabeth Rodriguez for organizing this large event. Thank you to the PTA board for coming in to help setup, serve and clean up. It was a great success and I hope everyone enjoyed meeting new people and seeing old friends. Back to School night was Wednesday, September 29th. Hopefully you were able to visit your child’s classroom and meet their teachers. It’s a great way to find out how your child spends their day and what the expectations are for the school year. All your membership, yearbook, and other PTA forms are being collected and money counted. We are hoping to have your receipts sent home during conference week. Please keep these receipts available as things come up during the year and you want to know what you’ve already paid for. Thank you to all of the parents and teachers that were able to attend our first PTA meeting of the year. This is the longest and most business oriented meeting of the year. Please don’t let that deter you from coming to more meetings!! We cover most business in the first meeting so that we can have more information and guest speakers at all the other meetings. Plus, the rest of the meetings are much shorter because most items are covered at the first meeting. We will start having guest speakers at the next meeting, Monday, October 18th at 7:00 p.m. in the Library. See you there! Julie Fretwell PTA President President@delcerro.org
