2. PTSO News
Dear Woodson Families,
We are so excited to start another school year together!
The PTSO has several initiatives we are already rolling out and we could use your help with:
- Opening our fall grant program to all students/parents and teachers
- Providing additional support to our military families
- Stocking up our pantry for our Woodson families in need
- (and more in the months to come!)
To meet these goals, we need your support.
Please consider donating to the PTSO. We are making it easy this year with PayPal, just click here!
As a parent, if you donate $30 you get an automatic membership so make sure to add your first name, last name and email in the notes and we will register you!
Want to donate $75? That's two adult memberships so add both names and we will discount the student membership from $10 to $5!
If you don't have PayPal that's OK - we also have our Woodson PTSO site that will take donations. Click here!
Questions? Please email Sara at saralmastro@yahoo.com or our membership director Megan, at woodsonmembers@gmail.com.
We look forward to a great year together.
