President's Message:
Welcome to another school year! As I begin my second year as President
of the PTO, I have renewed hope and enthusiasm. The PTO works diligently
to bring the students and teachers together to provide a solid learning
environment while improving the facilities. We encourage everyone to join
us as we continue to build on this foundation and the strengthening of
the educational experience.
The PTO has worked hard to put the proceeds from participation in the
fundraisers and events that it sponsors directly back in to the school.
We have made significant progress over the years. This past year the PTO
has earmarked $25,000 towards a science lab which we anticipate opening
for the start of 2008-2009 year. Additionally, the PTO has funded a
Teacher Continuing Education Fund in the amount of $5,000. These are just
a few of the many things that PTO has accomplished. In this school
handbook is a more complete list. I hope you agree that it takes the
participation of the entire St. Jude community to make such great
investments in the school and most importantly our children.
The only way PTO and all of us as parents can continue to ensure the
best possible education for our children is to participate in all aspects
of the school. This includes volunteering of your time and talents.
This sends a powerful message to your children that together we can make
a difference. I challenge each of you to make this commitment for
yourself, St. Jude, and most importantly your child. Thank you to those
who have volunteered in the past, we hope you will continue to show your
concern and support. For those that are new or have not been able to
volunteer in the past, don’t wait, join us today!
Loyally,
Kim Cole
