As many of you are aware, next week our Artists in Residency begins at Rees School. There are 5 artists coming for 10 days, starting September 27th. Because of stipulations set by the Utah Arts Council, there needs to be another adult with the artist while they are teaching. After utilizing all the teachers, there is still a need to have volunteers from the PTA. The wish of the Arts Committee at Rees is that these volunteers would be the same person. However, if that is not possible, they would like to have one volunteer for a week, and then another volunteer for the second week. Below are the times that our help is needed: 9:15 - 10:05: 1 person is needed 10:10 - 11:00 : 2 people are needed (only M,W,F for 1) 11:10 - 12:00 : 1 person is needed If you are available to help at ANY of these times, please call Suzee. Because this starts this Monday, we need to know quickly if you can help. Thanks so much for all that you do.

PTA Recap
We were so happy to be joined by so many people at this meeting! Mr. Larsen says we will need to move into the teacher's lounge for our next meeting, so we can have room!!! Thanks to all those who came.
We passed out the budget information. If you are a chair or a co-chair of a committee and you were not at meeting, please contact either Suzee, Camille, Tiffany, Tanya or Kristina for your budget information and a list of your committee.
We discussed Green Ribbon Week. The dress up days were assigned. We picked activities to do. We also discussed instead of having an assembly, we would try to find people who have made safe or healthy choices to come during announcements. If you have a story you could share, PLEASE contact a PTA board member!
We also talked about our upcoming 5K race. Our fundraising committee has done an excellent job on this. Please support them by signing up to run or walk the race!
Our PTA membership is up TREMENDOUSLY this year!! Last year we had around 90 members. This year we are sitting around 140. Way to go guys!!!!!!
We voted on giving teachers money to fund their classrooms again this year. We decided to keep the amount the same as last year. We will make this donation soon. It is exciting to put PTA funds to such good use!
We discussed our up coming Reflections contest. The contest will start on September 17th. It will run until October 27th. There will be an early bird drawing for those who get their projects turned in by October 1st. The theme this year is "Together We Can". Should be great!!! We have a lot of awesome ladies working hard on this. Please support your child and have them enter one or more of the categories. Packets are available in the office.
Mr. Larsen thanked us for all our hard work, and the meeting was adjourned. Short and sweet. Just the way we like them!!!
If you missed out, please plan on attending our next meeting on October 11 at 2:00 p.m. in the teacher's lounge.
Thanks for all you do ladies! You are the BEST!!!
