Dear parents, for those who have given "Thank you" however we are still in need of donations for our "The End of Year Luncheon". Let's give thanks to everyone at Palmetto High School for everything they do for our kids. We are still needing the following items:

+ Strawberries and other berries

Volunteers are needed on June 3rd to help set up and decorate the Media Center starting at 12:20pm after early release day (students would be given volunteer hours). Volunteers are needed on June 4th (day of event) at 10:15 am to prepare last minute things, in addition to serve at 12:20pm and / or cleanup.

Finally we would love to give every one of our 220 teachers and school staff a gift of appreciation; we are looking for gift certificates that can be given to males or females such as Trader Joes, Starbucks, movies, restaurants, massages, department stores, wine, sports, or wine bottles etc.

PTSA:

PTSA supports Creative Writing at Miami Palmetto Senior High. One of the Special Projects that PTSA supported this year was the publication of a Creative Writing magazine under the direction of English teacher, Jason Meyers. Last year, the students fundraised for the full cost of the publication. This year PTSA contributed $1000 towards the project. Check out the Creative work of our students by visiting: http://ensoulmagazine.wordpress.com. Congratulations to all students for a job well done.
