PTSO ANNUAL Priority Fund Update...
The Park: Make It Your Own by investing today!
IT IS NOT TOO LATE TO GIVE to our 2016-2017
We would still like to fund...
· Teacher requests for additional professional development opportunities
· Partnering w/ Mustang Club to upgrade the Stadium Bathrooms
Every single contribution impacts the school & students!
Here is what one teacher shared of how your contribution impacts our staff.
As a teacher at Myers Park, there are many things I am grateful for, but the support of our PTSO is something that is never far from my mind. In
doing interviews, when people ask about this place, I always mention the ways we feel appreciated and supported that are
beyond that of other high schools. We have the best appreciation events with parents who have smiles and positive words for us as we rush in for lunch or a candy pick me up. In moving into the new LA building, there were so many little things I wanted to help give
personality to my space. I had held onto my $100 (supply check) from August, knowing it would be needed in October when we moved in. Now in my new classroom, I had new brightly colored bulletin board fabric, new highlighters for my students to use, and new folders and baskets to keep work organized. It is such an incredible gift to not have to dip into our paychecks
to add those critical items to our classrooms.
-- Kristen Angerer, English Dept. Chair, Nat'l Board Cert. Teacher
