PTA Minutes September 10th, 2009

Suzee Anderson brought the meeting to order. She welcomed everyone and welcomed Sarai Memmot who was representing Mr. Larsen. She passed around a sheet to sign and to put all volunteer hours on. If you have any volunteer hours and were unable to attend that day you can email them to Kristina Reid , her email is krisreidemt@yahoo.com we need to turn these in by Sept. 20th.

Kristina Reid went over July's PTA minutes. A copy was given to all to review.

Suzee discussed the order of school t-shirts and hoped they would be here next week. She then thanked Nancy Lee for her awesome idea “Penny Wars” and Tanya Melton said how much we have raised $759.50 so far. Nancy and Suzee will be sending out a letter to all parents explaining our hopes for Penny Wars, these will go out by Monday. We then discussed other options we had if we needed to hold a fundraiser. We talked about Sally Foster, Cherry Dale, or Cookie Dough. It was brought up that Sally Foster always makes really good money. A motion was made by Kristina Reid to vote for Sally Foster as their fundraiser for the year and was seconded by Keri Marziale. Vote was placed, all was unanimous, motion passed. It was also mentioned that the Book Fair was not a fundraiser, that this was a way to earn our teachers books for their classrooms.

Sarai Memmott told everyone if they were customers of Direct T.V. they will donate $50.00 to your school. So if you are a Direct T.V. customer please call them!
