Welcome Letter 

 

Dear Pinewood Parents and Friends,

 

Welcome to the 2024-2025 School Year!  On behalf of the Parent Teacher Association, it is our pleasure to welcome you to another great year at Pinewood Elementary.  The PTA has planned a wonderful year full of programs and activities that will enrich and support our students in so many ways.  We also plan to have some fun along the way so we hope you will join us. Please join the PTA here.

 

Your membership is essential in helping our PTA sponsor the programming that is unique to our Pinewood community.  Your membership is comprised of two important elements: your financial contribution and your time.  With your support, we are able to…

 

  • Create a website, an online directory of PTA members, and an app for your phone
  • Support after-school clubs
  • Bring families together at Movie Night, our annual Halloween Monster Dash, Family Fun Night, Spring Carnival, etc.
  • Design and publish a student yearbook, and our literary work “Write On”
  • Support our teachers with supplies, room parents, and Teacher Appreciation Week gifts and treats
  • Keep families informed at our monthly PTA meetings, newsletters, and our PTA website

 

This year our PTA membership is $50 for a family with one student, plus $15 for each additional student. With a PTA membership, your family will enjoy free admission or special pricing for all PTA events, access to the online school directory, access to unlimited school-related resources, and the pride that comes in being a partner in our school community and in your child’s experience at Pinewood.

 

We are also asking for your expertise, your excitement and your support by volunteering for one of the many committees that make our PTA initiatives possible or by volunteering at one of our events.  These are great opportunities for your children to see your commitment to their school and to connect with other Pinewood families. Please signup to chair or join a committee where you fill out the membership form online here.

 

As Pinewood begins its 58th year, we look forward to working together to support our strong community and the continued pursuit of excellence in primary education. 

 

With Warm Regards,

Sara Ismart, Beth Jarrett, Amy Miller, Sara Petry & Julie Siegel
