Dear Whitman Family and Friends

 

The following events/activities are happening around Whitman Elementary:

 

SHHHHHHH Testing!!!!!

Upper grade students are still testing on May 9.  Whitman PTA will be
supporting the students by providing snacks.  Many special thanks to Mrs.
Wendy Jensen by keeping up with supplies, we are hopeful that this helped
make a difference (whether a little or a lot) for the students in their
performance on their tests.

provides the juice and cookies following the ceremony.  If you are

Budget Committee

If you want to have a say in what the Whitman PTA does, PTA does join the
budget committee, chaired by our dedicated and awesome Whitman PTA
Treasurer, Wilma McLaughlin.  The budget committee will be responsible for
putting together recommendations for the budget to the Executive Board for
the 2011-2012 school year.  The Executive Board will then be responsible for
putting together a proposed budget based on these recommendations.  The
proposed budget, which is basically the business plan for the school year,
will then have to be presented and approved by Members of the Whitman PTA in
September 2011 via an association meeting (Date TBD).  The budget committee
will meet sometime after July 1, specific dates/times to be determined.
Again this is THE MOST INFLUENTAL time influence the direction of Whitman
PTA.  We can't do this alone so we need your support!

 

Thank you and have a fabulous week!
