My name is Kristen Churchill and I have the privilege of serving as your PTO President this school year. I am mom to two kids, Julian and Isabel, and this is my seventh year at Crown Point Junior Music Academy.
We have assembled an amazing PTO board of talented and enthusiastic parents and teachers. Many new and returning parents have stepped up and assumed board positions, joined committees, or helped with events.
Thank you to those who have helped or signed our "2 Hour Power Pledge." It's not too late to sign up if you haven't already done so!
We have great events scheduled throughout the year. Remember to check the newsletter so you don't miss any of them.
I'm looking forward to a great year. Yours truly, Kristen Churchill
