Volunteer Spotlight
Lisa Nason and Amy Schmid have done an amazing job over the last two years, organizing and promoting our annual Holiday Bazaar. Over 50 vendors come together at this community event to offer specialized goods such as jewelry, holiday gifts, and food items. It's an event the EHS Community looks forward to every year. We thank Amy and Lisa for their hard work and dedication to making this event so special. Amy and Lisa are stepping down from their roles, so we're looking for Co-Chairs to keep this Holiday tradition going next year. Please contact Volunteers@ehsptsa.org
for more information.
Eastlake PTSA wishes to acknowledge these businesses for not only their financial support, but their continued support of our mission and goals.

Message from your PTSA President
Your feedback matters! Each Spring we offer a survey to collect your feedback on how you think we're doing and how we can improve. Last year we had several requests to increase the amount of our Community Service Scholarships. We are pleased to announce that the Board has approved
two $1,000 Community Service Scholarships, in addition to our other PTSA scholarships. Applications will be available soon. We are excited to provide this support to the EHS
Community Service Program. To find out more about this program, which is open and encouraged for ALL EHS students, click HERE. Be sure to check out the new list of local community service groups organized by area of interest, so there should be something for everyone! All students that log in 200 or more hours will proudly wear the Silver Cord at their Graduation.
We appreciate and value your feedback. Watch for our spring PTSA survey, or email us anytime.
WOLF STRONG PACK STRONG!!
