PTA
President's Message
Hello Edison! We have had a wonderful start to our 50 year celebration due to the support and hard work we have had from parents, teachers, and volunteers! First off we started the school year with our Fall Fundraiser and I am happy to say it did very well! Thank you to Carla Benson for doing a fabulous job!
Second, we are still having our membership drive. Remember it is never too late to join PTA! Lastly, we kicked off our 50th Anniversary with a family dinner and a movie night. It was a huge success and I want to thank all of the new volunteers that helped out! A big thank you to the Benson’s and the Canady’s for letting us borrow the movie equipment! We also had our Reflections kick off on October 1st and the children seem very excited about it! The theme this year is “I can make a difference by....”
Wow! As you can see, we have been very busy! And looking ahead there are still so many things we have planned! As we get closer to the holiday season I hope we all keep in mind the families that have lost their homes in the recent fires as well as our men and women in the military serving our Country. This year, with the help of Operation Gratitude, we will be collecting Halloween candy and shipping it to the soldiers in Iraq. We will also kick off our annual canned food drive on November 12. This is always a great way to remember those who are less fortunate than us.
Don’t forget, there are still many ways to become involved with the school. We are always looking for volunteers to help out with different events! As always, please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments, my contact information is below.
On behalf of myself and the Edison PTA, have a safe and happy Holiday Season!
Sincerely,
Barbara Smith
