Hello Tulita Families! This month our Historian Marina Clarke presents her report, which includes the number of hours volunteers spent performing PTA tasks. The total hours calculated (and estimated for the remainder of the year) are: 8,145...and we believe this is on the low side of what truly takes place! If you want to put a price tag using minimum wage, that is $97,740 of free work, all to enhance the education our students receive! A sincere thanks to everyone who volunteers. Happy upcoming Spring Break!

Ali Daly President, Tulita PTA

Caring Connections

Hello Tulita Families! Do you have a celebration center in your home? A place to acknowledge and highlight fun family news? It is a fantastic way to connect and unite family members. It can be on a wall or a board to highlight children’s accomplishments, whether big or small, traditional or unusual, academic or social, milestone or everyday event. And remember, celebrating isn’t about giving a reward or being the best; it’s about honoring your child’s efforts! Events to celebrate might include losing a tooth, learning to ride a bicycle, birthdays, improving a spelling score, or helping a friend through a difficult time. Have fun creating a celebration center with your family! Kindly, Diana Nelson Vice President, Tulita PTA
