PTA News

August 2010

Many PTA Committees have been working over the summer in planning for the 2010-11 academic year. We are grateful for their efforts and anticipate a productive year ahead. I encourage you to look around the PTA website, you will find useful information, including our Calendar, the new Spirit Shop, and a 'PTA Dues' link that allows you to pay your membership dues online.

 
PTA Board

Each year your PTA supports over $30,000 in school activities and resources for our children:

                Field Trips

                Santa USA

                GES Bank

                Class room supplies

                Scholarships

                Reading programs

                Technology equipment

                Facility repairs & improvement

                Arts in Education Programs

                Yearbook

                Breakfast for Heritage Day

              

This year due to GCISD budget shortfalls your PTA will support the following activities, among others, for our children:

                Choir

                Student Council

                KGES

                PAT

 

I’m sure you agree that all of these programs have a major impact on our children and are worthy of your support.

 

Take a moment now and support YOUR PTA by paying dues, making a donation, and even advertising in the GES Directory to support these programs for our children.

 

Go online at www.gespta.org

At the top right click “PTA Dues”

 

PTA dues are only $8: you will receive a much needed GES PTA Directory that fits nicely in your car’s glove box.

 

Donations of $30 per child are what will make all of these programs a success for our children.

 

Thank you for your support.

1.  Join the PTA
If you do nothing else, please consider joining the PTA.  Just click the link to join right on this website, it is fast and easy. You need only join once a year.  Both mom and dad can [should] join, as well as relatives, seniors, etc..
Please register on this PTA website if you haven’t already done so. We are trying to be “green” and use less paper in communications, so we hope to send electronically if the majority of parents is registered. Help us communicate more effectively in providing your e-mail address. Thank you!
Also check us out on Facebook and Twitter to keep up with the latest news.  Follow the links on the right to find us.  With so many ways to communicate we can save money and "green" at the same time.
2. Stay Informed
Scour those backpacks for flyers!  We all know they have a way of disappearing between school and home! Check here, our website, regularly.  We will continue to try to keep content fresh, timely, and relevant.  Email anyone on the PTA board if you have questions or suggestions.  Stay in the loop!  Come to our general meetings.  They will always be announced on the home page.
3. Volunteer
We need help!  All year, every year.  It takes a village, really, to accomplish all we do for the children.  Please consider volunteering some time this coming year to help us out. You'll be glad you did.
If you would like to volunteer at GES or have any questions, please contact Kimberley Davis, PTA Volunteer Coordinator.
