Well, Mr. Vogelman assures me he's been training hard and is ready to run on Saturday in Westland's Wild Dash 5K. Lots of teachers and staff are planning to participate as well, so we now we just need a great turnout from parents and kids. It's going to be a beautiful day - no more excuses. Just sign up and have a blast!

 

Many thanks to Jan Eisner for providing coffee & snacks for the Principal's Coffee last week. Also, many thanks to Hope Pinkerton, Carol Kelly, Betsey Hudis, Maria Northup, Ari Antonelli, Katja Fras, Sherman and Angie Davis, Jacky McGroarty, Michele McNealy, Amy Nadel and Alex Weiner for providing a fantastic spread at yesterday's staff meeting. It was clearly much appreciated as there wasn't a crumb left!  And a belated thank you to all who contributed to the fantastically successful Career Day on April 2nd. I heard great reviews from both presenters and students alike. Many thanks to the Guidance Office for spearheading this effort and to all who participated.

 

As I mentioned last week, in an effort to reach out to new parents, the PTA is also hosting a series of coffees and desserts for incoming parents from our feeder schools. I'm hosting a morning coffee for BE parents on April 23, and Ari Antonelli is hosting a dessert for Somerset parents on April 28th. If you'd like to host a get-together for your elementary school, please let me know.

 

As always, please contact me or Alex Weiner if you'd like to hear more about all of the opportunities that are available with the PTA next year. The best jobs go early, so don't delay!
