Greetings!

The Panther Press and our e-newsletter updates are the best method we have to communicate important information to you and your students.  Please take the time to open each e-mail and learn about activities that affect you and your children.
 
At last nights PTA General Meeting, we were able to watch a wonderful video from the TexasPTA called "Party 101; Consequences" about Underage drinking.  The video is available in the SRMS library. 
 
We have many other wonderful activities planned so don't delete that e-mail.  Take the time and stay informed.

Reminders from "The Ridge"
"Save Lids to Save Lives" Program still needs your help.
Yoplait Lid Shadow Ridge PTA is participating in the Yoplait "Save Lids to Save Lives" program. 
 
Just look for the pink lids on packages of Yoplait yogurt and smoothies, and send the washed lids into school.  For every lid received, Yoplait will donate 10 cents to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, up to $1.5 million - with a guaranteed donation of at least $500,000. 
 
Lids will be collected in the SRMS cafeteria through the end of November.  This is a chance for each of us to take part in the fight against breast cancer.  Working together, one lid at a time, we can get there.

A message about Heart Disease

Adults aren't the only ones at risk for heart disease, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases: increasingly, children are at risk too. That is why the American Heart association is working to help children and families live heart-healthy lives.
