Volunteers for PTSA Nominating Committee 

The PTSA is seeking members for this year's nominating committee, the people who will have the greatest influence on our PTSA's future. The role of the nominating committee is to identify candidates for next year's PTSA Executive Board (President/VP/Secretary/Treasurer). Details are available on the Washington State PTA website. We hope to have our nominating committee in place before the end of the year, allowing them time to attend a brief district training session in January. Please send your nominee's contact info to Marypat Meuli, Lakeview PTSA President, lakptsapresident@gmail.com. You can nominate yourself or others in our Lakeview PTSA community.

Room Parents Needed  

Do you have a student in one of these classes: Fraley/Hasty (2nd), Evangelisto (2nd), Adams (4th), Boradori (4th), or Coebergh (6th)? We are looking for room parents for these classes, to be our main PTSA liason. In addition to helping the teacher, the room parent also helps coordinate the classroom teacher appreciation week activities. The time demand is quite low (less than an hour per week) and the position is key for providing great PTSA support to our wonderful staff. If you are interested, please contact your classroom teacher and Katy Basnaw, basnaw@gmail.com, our PTSA Volunteer Coordinator.

Thank You

Thank you to Neicole Crepeau and Susan O'Neill for your help with the picture retakes and class photos. If you did not fill out a form for a class photo, you still have time! Order forms are available in the main office. If you have further questions or concerns, please contact the PTSA school services at lakptsaservices@gmail.com. Thank you again Neicole and Susan!

Winter Wishes Begins

This is an opportunity to give to those in need in our community during the holiday season. Gift tags labeled with a gift "wish" will be available at school beginning Monday, 11/21 and at Family Dance Night tonight, 11/18. Purchase the gift and return it unwrapped to school. We will wrap and deliver it. So easy! For more information contact Dana Laursen at dana.laursen@earthlink.net.

LWPTSA Basket Auction

Each year, the LWPTA Council offers more than $12,000 in scholarships to high school seniors and teachers within the school district. Besides the $100 donations made by each local unit, the annual basket auction is the only fundraiser we have to generate the remaining scholarship funds.

 

Beginning in November, baskets will be on display in the lobby of the LWSD Resource Center. Silent auction bidding begins Thursday, 11/3 and will be open for the entire month. The final auction bidding will take place after the December council meeting on Thursday, 12/1 at 10:00am.
