Summer 2010 Letter from the President of the PA
Dear St. Michael's Families and Friends,
It is with much excitement that I welcome you to the 2010-2011 school year! As a member of the St. Michaels Parent’s Association (SMSPA), I would like to extend my warmest greeting to all of our new families as well as our returning families.
The SMSPA is a dedicated group of parent volunteers who work together, along with school administrators, faculty and staff for the betterment of our school community.
The mission of our PA is to build an inclusive community at St. Michaels through:
- Outreach to families, teachers and staff
- Promote a culture of volunteerism
- Foster a community wide communication
- Supporting Parent Education
Throughout the year, the PA sponsors a variety of event, fundraisers and activities that benefit not only our SMS children but the local children of our community, as well. A vital role of the PA besides community building and community service is to raise funds to maintain our Afterschool Enrichment Program, support class field trips, assemblies, guest speakers, school events, including our annual Fall Frenzy and Teacher Wish Lists for classroom supplies, furniture or equipment.
The PA can only achieve its mission with your help and support. I hope you will assist us by volunteering some of your time to be involved in the different committees and to attend the wonderful events planned for our school this year. We encourage you to attend the PA meetings which are held throughout the school year. Our meeting discussions include updates to upcoming PA fundraiser activities and events, and the PA budget. In addition, there will also be informative discussions which will address various topics relevant to our school and our children.
Through our efforts, activities and events we hope to form a stronger parent body, enduring friendships and further cultivate an inclusive school community in which everyone feels a part.
If you would like more information about the Parents Association, have comments or suggestions, please contact me or any other SMSPA executive board members. We look forward to seeing you and to a fun-filled, exciting year for St. Michaels and the Parents Association.
-With warmest regards, Rachel McCall (PA President 2010)
