Thank You, Amity Intern Hosts!
| |
|
It's a worn out phrase but truly it takes a village to have a successful Amity Intern program here at Puesta del Sol! We could not do this without the support of our host families. We would like to extend our sincerest appreciation to the 2015-2016 host families for opening up their homes and helping this year's interns feel welcome and supported. We hope their hosting experience was a rewarding one!

PTA Seeking New El Sol Editor for 2016-2017
| |
|
The PTA is actively seeking a co-editor for our PTA Newsletter (El Sol). Our current editor has been doing this job for a couple years and now is graduating out of Puesta del Sol parenthood. However, she will be available this spring and summer to train the new co-editor. One of the editors will continue in their current role for 2016-2017. Editing duties include:
- Soliciting and compiling articles from PTA committees for El Sol publication
- Placing content in El Sol via the PTA's Constant Contact portal
- Coordinating school announcements/information with the communications team.
- Time commitment is approximately 2-4 hours per week, averaging 2 hours a week most of the year.
It should be noted that the articles submitted to the El Sol Editor will be complete; they will be fully written up and proof-read by at least two parties prior to the Editor being requested to place them in the newsletter. This is to take the burden of writing and editing off this Editor position. This is a great way to work from home and be active in the PTA's activities and promotions. Ideal candidates are comfortable with using computers, have basic word processing software, are timely and detail oriented, and are able to commit for at least a full school year. Duties would be assumed in June of the current school year to allow an overlap and training with the current editorial team. Interested parties please contact adminsupport@puestadelsolpta.org
