Calling for Volunteers for the Educational Enhancement Committee
We still have open positions to coordinate Educational Enhancement programs: Academic Challenge, After School Programs, International Spanish Academy (ISA), 5th Grade Math Olympiad, Reflections, Spanish Immersion Through the Arts (SITA), and more.
These are great opportunities to enrich our students' experience!
Note that the Flamenco teacher already contacted us about running classes, but we need a volunteer to help coordinate. We will not be able to run the programs for which we do not have volunteers. If you are interested in any of these open positions, please follow instructions here: https://puestadelsolpta.org/Page/AboutPTA/Committees.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us at

Do you have the skills to translate material for the PTA into Spanish?
Our goal is to message in both Spanish and English on as many pieces of communication as possible.

Meet our new Amity Intern: Paula Jimenez

Hi everybody!
I’m Paula. I have 26 years old. I was born in Fontellas, a little village in the North of Spain. I’m an adventurous person so I love discovering new things to do. In my free time I go to the cinema, go hiking, go to the gym, read books and so on.
I studied primary and kindergarten education degree and nowadays, I continue with a masters. Also, I love cooking different cultural dishes overall Mexican and Italian food. Moreover, I love travelling and I’ve visited some European countries like Italy, Luxemburg, Croatia and so on. I am enchanted to participate as Amity and I’m too thankful to Puesta School and my host families.
Gracias a todos y nos vemos por la escuela!
Paula
