Yesterday was the first day back to school! It was great seeing so many smiling faces back at Summit!
Forest Hills School District has a new website and Summit Elementary PTA has moved our site within the Summit Elementary Page to keep all information in one easy location! Our New Summit PTA site: https://www.foresthills.edu/summit/about/pta.html
If you are receiving this email and no longer have a student at Summit, we offer our apologies. We do not get a new mailing list until a couple of weeks into the school year and need to use last year's to communicate with parents. There is a Safe Unsubscribe link at the bottom of this email that will allow you to remove yourself from our list.

PTA has gone paperless! We have followed the district's lead in trying doing as much through online forms as we can. If you haven't yet joined PTA for 2016-17, please take a moment to submit your dues using our new online form. You still have the option to submit a paper form and send in a check or cash with your student;
use this form to submit your information and send it in with payment in an envelope marked "PTA Membership"
We are looking forward to a great year and thank you in advance for getting involved in helping us enhance the educational experience of our Summit students!

Hello from the School Counselor's Office
|
|
I am here to help students be successful at school and want to share an opportunity for parents to attend.
Are you a parent looking for how to help your child with worry, stress or fear? Dr. Paul Foxman will be presenting at Indian Hill High School who is an expert in the field on
September 15 at 6:30 p.m. Dr. Foxman will outline what parents can do to reduce stress and anxiety. This presentation is fitting for all grade levels. As always, I am a resource at Summit if your child is dealing with these feelings.
Check out this flyer for more information.
Sincerely,
Shannon Rooney

DI is an international, educational program that gives kids an amazing outlet for their creativity, while teaching them leadership, teamwork, positive thinking, project management and more. The tournament takes place in the spring, and teams work through the winter on their solutions. Teams will be forming at the beginning of the school year in all Forest Hills schools. Look for more information to come and consider signing up for a team!

Adventure Guides and Princesses Program
|
BOYS & GIRLS – YOU AND YOUR DAD ARE
INVITED TO JOIN THE ADVENTURE!
Camp, Canoe, Catch a Fish, Ride a Horse, Roller Skate, Go to a Hockey Game, Bowl and Raft on a River Best of all – Have FUN with your Dad and Friends!
The Adventure Guide and Princesses program is different from scouting, sports teams, and many other activities because it is specifically intended to be a father AND child organization. Our members join the program specifically because fathers and children want to spend more time together. This program provides a wealth of opportunities and settings you are unlikely to find otherwise.
