Dear Jefferson Families,
On behalf of the PTA Board, I would like to welcome you to the 2023-2024 school year. My name is Kristine Conway, and I would like to introduce myself as your PTA President. My son, Rowan, has already completed a wonderful journey through Jefferson, and is off to Parras this year. My daughter, Quinn, was part of the first TK class at Jefferson last year and is excited to start Kindergarten this year. I have served the PTA in the last years as a Board Member, as well as Co-Chair for Running Club, Jog-a-thon, and Spring Carnival. I’ve also been a room parent and participated on many committees for fundraisers and other school programs. I have been honored to be part of this school community, and excited for the years to come.
Every year, the PTA supports school programs such as field trips, assemblies, community events, Hands on Art, the Garden program, and grants for teacher supplies as well as scholarships for Jefferson alumni. These programs and events can only happen with your support. The easiest way to help, is to JOIN THE PTA and become a member. It costs only $15/person, and our goal is to have 100% participation from teachers and families. All donations are tax deductible. By becoming a PTA member, you are joining the largest children’s advocacy organization in the country.
Here are some other ways you can help:
-
Please Donate! We have numerous fundraisers throughout the year and all donations are tax deductible.
-
Volunteer! We offer many volunteer opportunities throughout the year. We appreciate any time you can give.
-
Stay connected! Keep up to date with everything happening in the school by signing up to receive our weekly e-newsletter “Dolphin Did You Know” (DDYK). You can also follow us on Facebook or Instagram. Also, members get to attend the PTA meetings. (Our first meeting is scheduled for Tues, Sept 12 at 8:15am in the school cafeteria)
I am so excited to be a part of such an amazing group of parent volunteers within the PTA. I hope you will join us! Please feel free to reach out to us at JeffElem.PTA@gmail.com if you have any questions. Wishing you all the best for this coming school year!
Kristine Conway
Jefferson PTA President
