Letter from our PTSA President

 

August 2011

Hello Einstein Families!

On behalf of the Einstein PTSA, welcome (or welcome back!) to Einstein! We are really looking forward to a great year at Einstein. The PTSA goal for the 2011-2012 school year is to continue to build and strengthen our community and to get every parent involved in their child’s education. This will be accomplished through our enrichment programs, teacher support, and family events. Here is what you can do to help us achieve those goals and make a difference in our school:

1.  VOLUNTEER! We are asking each Einstein family to pledge two hours of their time this year to Einstein. This small time commitment, multiplied by all of our families, will have an enormous impact on our school. Of course, we welcome any amount of time you can give and have many opportunities depending on your availability and interests. Our programs cannot happen without your help! Contact your child's teacher and our PTSA Volunteer Chairperson Rana Shafi at volunteers@einsteinptsa.org.

2. JOIN! By becoming a PTSA member, you help support all that the PTSA is doing for your child and teacher and you show your child his/her education matters to you. Your membership gives you a voice and a vote at general membership meetings where key decisions about our school are made. Contact our Membership VP Laura D’Urso at membership@einsteinptsa.org.

3. CONTRIBUTE! Donate to our annual Pass the Hat campaign to fund many important programs at our school, including field trips, art enrichment, teacher grants, family events, choir, assemblies, before and after school activities, chess in 2nd and 3rd grades, and so much more. We have set a goal of $65 per child to fund these programs, but every contribution helps! Please remember corporate matching to help your dollar go even further. Contact our PTSA Fundraising Chairpersons Donna Muench and Tiffany Elrod at fundraising@einsteinptsa.org.

4. OUTREACH! Our PTSA represents all of our students and families. Talk to your friends and neighbors and encourage them to get involved. Help us reach families who have not been involved in the past or who speak a different language. We want a diverse community united in our mission to offer the best educational experience for all of our children!

The PTSA board and I look forward to welcoming you in person. We hope to see you at the Meet and Greet, McTeacher Night, and Curriculum Night.

I hope you and your children have a wonderful school year!
