CAPSO Corner
CAPSO Corner is back! And just in time to give some major belated thank yous. First off, a much belated thank you to
Cheri Jaunich
for single-handedly chairing and pulling together the entire auction at the Community Fundraiser last month. "Thank you" just doesn't seem to say enough to express our appreciation and gratitude for this massive undertaking that Cheri made look so easy.
Also, our heartfelt thanks go to Grace Shanahan for leading the charge on the annual Teacher Appreciation dinner. This is such an important event for our school and a way for CAPSO to recognize just how much we love our faculty and staff.
Finally, the "Circle of Life" most definitely includes our circle of parent volunteers who helped make the Lion King an undeniable success: Cheri Jaunich (what does this woman not do?), Linda Stoick, Kevin Curran, Lynn Falconer, Steve Fischbeck, Kim Cooper, Janet Land, Brigid Oram, Gina and Brian Wood, Beth Springer, Veronica Reidel, Shelley Smith, Aya Dowd and Kristen Katz.
If these volunteers have inspired you, CAPSO would love to have your help next year. Thanks to those parents who have already reached out and expressed interest in taking a leadership position next year. Any other interested volunteers should contact Katie and Margie. We will be following up soon!
Finally, please Save the Date of Sunday, June 4. It is "Armstrong Day at the SJ Giants' Stadium" - 1 pm game. It is going to be a fabulous day at the ballpark with the Armstrong Community. More details to come!
Warmly,
Margie Curran & Katie Storey
CAPSO Co-Chairs
