PTA Meeting Thu., Feb. 25 at 5pm, Evaluating Our Mission Statement, and Election Notice for Mar. 25

Join us for the next PTA meeting this Thursday, February 25, 5–6:30pm on Zoom

Before we mention the agenda, mark your calendars for Election Day on March 25, 2021. If you wish to participate in the vote, make sure you are a PTA member by this Tuesday, February 23 as you must be a member for 30 days to vote at PTA meetings. PTA membership must be renewed annually. Not sure if you’re a member? Contact membership@LakeshoreElementary.org to check. You can join or renew online for $10. Memberships are free for teachers/staff. Sponsored members are available for families in need—apply here.

The agenda is fairly light this time, but we’re setting aside 90 minutes just in case we need the time. If we end after an hour as usual, great!
