General PTA Meeting at 7pm Today

 


Dear PTA Members,

A friendly reminder to please join us today, 9/29, in person at J.F. Cooper Elementary School in the library for our general PTA Meeting from 7pm - 8pm. 

If you'd like to attend virtually, please see the end of this message for the Zoom link.

Bridget Moore, our VP of Ways and Means, will have "The Food Book" coupon books on hand if anyone would like to purchase one. They are $10 each. You can also grab a Back to School Night welcome pack if you missed one on Back to School Night :)

Most of you received the budget reports earlier in the month if membership dues had been paid by then. These reports will be referred to for your approval. Let us know if you have any questions regarding them - you are welcome to share your feedback/comments/concerns. For those who have not reviewed them yet, please see the reports under the General Membership meeting tab.

NJ PTA Diversity and Inclusion Survey

The NJPTA Diversity and Inclusion Committee has been hard at work trying to tailor their programs to meet the diversity and inclusion needs of families and local units. To this end, they have designed a survey to give themselves an idea of where they stand from the perspective of local families.

We were asked to share this survey in our community to help them engage and empower families and local units.

Diversity and Inclusion Survey

The survey will close for submissions on October 15!
