We feel that this is a great beginning for the Middle School High School PTSA and we urge everyone to participate next year. We understand that parents of children in middle school & high school are extremely busy. Helping a little sometimes helps a lot. This year we were able to help aid in the growth and development of your children. As you can see, our goal was to make sure that the money was spent on the children’s needs. We tried to span the gaps wherever they were presented to us to the best of our ability.
Thank you all for your support and a successful first year for the PTSA.
Please welcome the new President Bart Louwagie, Vice President Trish Arnold, and Treasurer Danielle Gentile
