WES PTA FROM THE PTA STAFF APPRECIATION

COMMITTEE: In lieu of asking for food donations for each teacher

appreciation event throughout the year, the PTA Staff Appreciation Committee is asking for a minimum $2 donation per student to treat our teachers and staff throughout the year.  We feel this one time contribution will make the process of putting on these events much easier. Assuming we get near 100% participation in this effort, we won't be asking for any more donations throughout the year. This will cover monthly “goodies”, a welcome back breakfast, as well as a teacher appreciation lunch in May. Please send your donation in an envelope marked "PTA donation" via your child's folder. Checks can made payable to WES PTA. Thank you in advance for your support.

PARENT-STUDENT-TEACHER CONTRACT

Please be looking for the contract in your child’s HW folder tomorrow!

Please SIGN, DATE and RETURN by Tuesday, September 2nd.

THANK YOU FOR COMING!!

WE LOOK FORWARD TO A GREAT YEAR WITH YOUR CHILD.
