Dear Eastvalley Families,
Welcome back to our little school with a big heart. It was wonderful to see all the familiar faces and to welcome some new ones at both orientations. The school year is off to a wonderful start and everyone is falling into a nice routine. A big thank you to all that have joined the PTA and made such generous donations.
Remember, it’s never too late to join the PTA! We encourage you to buy memberships for each person in your family for just $5 each. Your $5 will help fund programs such as Art Print, Fall Festival, International Night, Eastvalley Reading Club (EVRC), Science Day, Math Club (E=MC2) and many other wonderful activities. New this year, events such as Father/Son, Mother/Son and other fee-based events will offer a discounted charge for PTA members only to show our appreciation. Your membership also entitles you to discounts at some local merchants and national vendors.
Currently our membership is up 15% from last year and we have met two major goals set by the Georgia PTA and The National PTA--so let’s keep it going “we are on a roll”.
In addition to your PTA membership we need volunteers to help with the fun events and educational programs at our school. Be sure to check out the
Committee List to see where help is needed, and contact our Volunteer Coordinator Jyl Ozkan at
ozkan@bellsouth.net or Michelle Zimmerman at
zaczim3@aol.com if you have time and talents to donate! It doesn’t have to be a big commitment, if you tell us how much time you have to offer we will find the right fit for you.
First call for volunteers will be our Fabulous Fall Festival…Saturday October 3rd 11:00-3:00. You can sign up via the website, or by emailing Doreen Waugaman
doreenwaugaman@hotmail.com.
This is going to be a great year!
