Welcome Back to School

Welcome back to school for Elmhurst's 2011 - 2012 academic school year. Educating children is a very important job and the Elmhurst PTA needs your help. By joining the PTA you will demonstrate your support of our school, staff and students. Membership funds, in addition to others, make the PTA's many endeavors possible. Some of the enrichment programs sponsored by the PTA include:

• Music - supplemental music curriculum, which involves students in a variety of music experiences
• Technology - internet accessible laptops with document cameras in every class
• Red Ribbon Week - a drug awareness, education and prevention programs
• Assemblies - monthly programs such as music, performance arts and theater arts
• Classroom Grants - monetary contributions for supplemental classroom material

Giving of your time, talent and ability not only helps the school; it also enriches our children's education. Find out more at our first PTA meeting tomorrow, Wednesday August 24 at 6 PM in the teacher's lounge.

Thank you for your support. We look forward to another great year at Elmhurst!

Sincerely,
Shelley and Peggy
