Become More Involved in CAPT!
At the end of this year, our whole Board will be concluding their 2 year terms. If you like what CAPT does and want to become more involved, here's your chance! No matter your skillset, we have a position for you!

Serving on the Board is a great way to get to know other parents and guardians. It's also a fantastic way to support the educational experience of all children in our school. As discussed at previous CAPT meetings, we would like to have folks who may be interested in these roles shadow this year to see if this is something that will interest them next year and it will be an easier transition once our current board leave at the end of this school year.

Each newsletter, we'll highlight one board position! If you would like to know more or want to shadow the current member, please reach out.
