MVHS PTSA Board Positions 2024-2025
A lot is going on this time of year and here is ONE more. PLEASE HELP! We need more support for the next school year - 2024-2025. We have had some folks nominate themselves to be a part of our board next year (YAY!) but we need a couple more positions filled and one is critical to our getting off the ground. Please consider being a part of a great group of parents and a great school! We are happy to talk about each position if you have any questions. Our current Treasurer has worked extremely hard to get our finances as automated as possible to reduce the burden for the next person. PLEASE take a minute and consider a role for yourself or to talk to a friend that may be interested or know someone.
