Honoring all of those at Miraloma who give so much to our children, the Annual Teacher & Staff Appreciation Luncheon will be held in the library on Thursday, May 12 at 11:30am (early release). This PTA-sponsored luncheon serves 55, including the after-care programs and all Miraloma staff.
We can use your help with:
- Set-up: Immediately following drop-off in the library. Seating and buffet table settings, setting up beverage service, flower arranging and placement, signage for menu items, last-minute pick-ups, etc. One more volunteer needed.
- Clean-up: Roughly between 12:45-3pm in the library. Many hands make light work! Two more volunteers needed.
- Bringing flowers from your garden, collected outside the cafeteria at drop-off on May 12.
To confirm volunteering or for any questions, please email Natalie Krelle-Zepponi at nataliekz@aol.com.
Many thanks for supporting this special lunch!

| MAY 20: Zeitgeist Miraloma Teacher Appreciation Day |
Parents, staff, teachers! Come enjoy a burger and beer at Zeitgeist o
n Friday, May 20th at 3:30 pm
to celebrate our amazing teachers!
We'll also celebrate Mr. Bass and send him off with a big thank you.
Through the last three years of helping in the classroom I have come to realize the amount of work that our teachers give to us and our children and wanted to organize something to celebrate them.
I have teamed up with our PTA to make this event happen and cover the costs for the teachers. Anyone who wants to come hang out and celebrate these amazing teachers is welcome to do so, the more the merrier!!
Thank you and see you there...
Juan Puente (father of Otto in Ms. Rosen's class).
