PTA MESSAGE

Welcome back, Green Oaks Beavers! We are so excited to be with you on this adventure of a school year! We know that things look a lot different than normal so far, but your Green Oaks PTA is still here for you! At this time of year, we would normally be meeting in person for Back to School Nights and handing out paper copies of our Welcome Packet. However, because Back to School Nights are digital this year, so is our Welcome Packet, which is attached to this email. Inside, you will find information on what PTA is and how we contribute to the school, how you can become a member, common PTA FAQ's, a PTA meeting calendar, and links to our new website and spirit wear. If you have any questions or are interested in learning how you can help out our school by joining the PTA, please email us at GreenOaksPTA@gmail.com. Thank you so much for your continued support and let's have a great year!

- Kevyn Sarmiento, PTA President

PS - On a different note, we still have not gotten confirmation of when yearbooks will be in. We have reached out several times to LifeTouch to get updates on our orders, but have been unable to get a decisive answer from them, other than they are backlogged because of COVID19. We promise that we will continue to reach out to the yearbook company, and as soon as we get information, we will let everyone know. We are so sorry for the long delay and appreciate your understanding."
