PTSA General Meetings

General PTSA meetings are a great way for parents/caregivers, students, and staff to participate actively in our school community. We will have five general meetings this year: 9/7, 11/9, 1/11, 3/8, and 4/12. Most of our General meetings will be on Zoom; our 11/9 meeting is a Morning Coffee with our Principal at our garden, and 4/12 is our Election Meeting for 2023-24 Board Members. If you missed a meeting, please see the Slide Deck and Minutes below. Thanks.

At each meeting, we’ll discuss recent and upcoming school initiatives, events, and activities, and review PTSA budget issues. To be a voting participant, you must be a PTSA Member. Please join us and share your ideas or thoughts! We are stronger together ~ the more of us who participate, the bigger the impact we’ll have within our school community. Let’s do this, Jaguars!
