Dear Parents,
We're in the fourth quarter of the school year, with warmer weather and spring blossoms just around the corner. It was wonderful seeing many of you at our recent PTA meeting. Your enthusiasm and ideas truly help make our school community stronger, and we’re so grateful for your continued support.

You can view the PTA meeting presentation and financials on the PTA website.
Important Meeting Highlight: Volunteers are Essential
Many of the events and programs that our kids enjoy throughout the year wouldn’t be possible without the support of parent volunteers. While we’ve had incredible participation from some families, we still need more help to ensure these events can continue.
Volunteering doesn’t require a huge time commitment—even a little help can go a long way! Whether it’s assisting at an event, helping behind the scenes, or contributing ideas, your involvement makes a big difference. Even just 30 minutes to an hour of your time helps!
As we plan for the remainder of the school year, we encourage all families to consider how they can get involved. Without enough volunteers, it’s difficult to maintain the programs that benefit our children.
We currently need volunteers for:
- PTA Executive Team Positions for the 2025-2026 school year (VP Membership, VP STEM, and VP Arts and Performances) – Contact Lauren Christopher for more information.
- Staff Appreciation Week – Contact Katie Lester for for more information.
Important Upcoming Events
Thank you for being part of our amazing community and for your continued support!
Sharlyne Tsai, PTA President
