Welcome to the Hamagrael PTA
Dear Hamagrael Parents and Friends:
Happy New Year! We have so much to look forward to in the coming year.
Mark your calendars for the upcoming Family Math and Science Nights Jan. 9-11. Sign-up flyers should have come home with your children.
We are expecting another great turn-out for the Family Fun (Skate) Night on Jan. 21, 7-8:30 p.m. at the Bethlehem YMCA.
To keep updated with events coming this winter and spring, keep an eye out for the next PTA Newsletter to come home with your student.
Thank you again to all the wonderful volunteers who have made the PTA programs and events such a success thus far! With continued support we can make a real difference in our students’ school experience.
Please consider joining the PTA. Your dues and support of our fundraising efforts provide funding for many important activities for your children such as author visits; art, science and math fairs; enrichment program support; special activities across grade levels; outdoor school beautification projects; and community enriching events throughout the year. Each PTA newsletter will come home in your oldest child’s folder and it will keep you up to date with all that is going on.
The next PTA meeting will be held on Thursday, Jan. 26, at 7 p.m.
Please join us to learn more about our upcoming programs, fundraisers, and how to become involved. Free babysitting will be available at this meeting for children three and older.
We look forward to working with you to make this year great for all of our Hamagrael families.
Sincerely,
The Hamagrael PTA Board
