PTAA Letter: The Countdown Has Begun…

No, I am NOT counting down my days as PTAA President (Really! It has been a wonderful experience, I promise), but I think we are all counting down the days until summer. I’ve always heard that the 3rd trimester is the shortest, but I had no idea it would fly by this quickly. Even though we only have a month or so left in the school year, your PTAA is not slowing down!

Below are some highlights of PTAA events we have scheduled this month:

  • April 30th -May 2nd: Book Fair (collaborative effort between PTAA Book Fair Committee and CA Librarians).
  • May 2nd: CA PTAA Diversity Committee presents: American Promise: An African American Introspective Look at Independent School Life. 7:15-9:15, Berger Hall Lecture Hall. To RSVP: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0E4BA5A92FA02-american
  • May 8th: 11th Grade Parent Coffee, 7:45-9 am
  • May 12th: Frozen treats in faculty lounges (sponsored by the PTAA Employee Appreciation committee).
  • May 13th: incoming 6th grade World Language Registration Night Dinner (sponsored by the PTAA New Parent Programs Committee).
  • May 16th: Middle School Parent Social at Dean’s Seafood Bar & Grill (8-10pm, during the MS Movie Night).
  • May 23rd: Junior College Interviews (sponsored by the PTAA Interview Committee).
  • May 23rd: Commencement. 12th Grade Level Coordinators are working hard on many exciting events leading up to Commencement for our wonderful Seniors!
  • June 6th: 8th Grade Celebration Reception (following ceremony) and Evening Dance (sponsored by MS Reps and 7th and 8th Grade Level Coordinators).
