Another Successful Jump Start Day
|
Jump Start Day (JSD) was once again a fun and successful day. There was of course some confusion and the pizza idea was so overwhelmingly popular we ran out of pizzas on two separate occasions. We didn't think there would be a need for over 50 pizzas! Thank you for your patience and to those who couldn't wait, and didn't get to eat, we are sincerely sorry. Next time we do something like that we will now be better prepared. If you have any comments or suggestions for next year's JSD please email me at JEideVP@gmail.com.
THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS
JSD could not happen without the generous efforts put in by the volunteers.
Pizza Fundraiser: Cyndy Palermo, Carolann Ianora, Kimberlee Glemser and a very special thank you to Ken from Papa Murphy's Pizza in the Palos Verdes Shopping Center. Welcome and Help Tables: Alice Burns, Margarita Cervantes, Ellen Javete and Rose Bargmann Directory and Email Club Table: Orlando Guzman PTA Table: Sue Noack, Amanda Szakats and Stephanie Canon Fundraising Table (with the great cookies): Martha Alexander and Leslie Shanks FAME Table: Kendra Phair and Alison Clary MADD/Campus Improvement Table: Vangie Jordan and Noga Kessler Volunteer Table: Katie Roarty and Ellen Dutton Spirit Wear Table: Kim Khalavati (and her mom) and Kathy and Ken Rapmund Cashiers: Lisa Eide, Lisa Ahearn, Marta Senz and Melanie Jurow and providing breaks and helping everywhere was Kelly Martinelli.

PTA Welcome Back Coffee

Join us the first day of school, Monday, Aug 31st, at 8:10 a.m. in front of the multi-use room for a special Welcome Back Coffee sponsored by the Strandwood PTA.
Come and catch up with friends you haven't seen all summer or make new ones as you gather to mourn together (just a little bit!) the fact that your first (or last) child is entering Kindergarten.
Hope to see you there! |
