We hope this note finds everyone healthy and enjoying their summers! Please find a few updates below from the Whittier PTA!
Calling Incoming Whittier Kindergartners
Audience: 2020-21 Whittier Kindergartners
Join us for a virtual Pajama Party on Wednesday, August 26th at 7pm! Bring your favorite buddy/blanket and a yummy snack. We will be reading a bedtime story and saying “hi!” before school starts!
If you are interested in having your child participate, please RSVP to Mandi Torello (Acraig1014@gmail.com) or Sarah Forillo (sarahforillo@gmail.com).
Treasurer Wanted!
Audience: All Whittier Parents
We are sad to announce that our newly appointed treasurer will be unable to fulfill her new role due to a change in circumstances. Luckily, Lori Achilles is still available to teach a new treasurer and expects it will be an easy year to take over.
If you are interested in this newly opened up position, please reach out to Lori at lori.achilles@gmail.com
Want to stay in touch with the Whittier PTA?
Audience: All Whittier Families and Staff
With school scheduled to start in a few weeks, we have opened up enrollment to give you a chance to cross one item off your “to do list”, by joining the PTA, and here is how:
1) Join the PTA for the 2020-2021 School Year: This is where you can sign up to purchase a paper copy of the directory, advertise in the directory, make an Angel Donation, and/or express interest in getting more involved in the various Whittier committees and events. Link: https://whittierschoolpta.org/join-our-pta-for-next-year/
3) Enter/Update your Directory information: If you already have a Whittier Directory Spot account, that will remain in tact. Please just update your contact information. For new families, to gain access to the online directory, you must first join the PTA (step #1 above). With your paid membership you will be set up with a Directory Spot account. You will receive an email from Directory Spot, but if you miss it you can go directly to Directory Spot and create an account. Just be sure to use the same email that you used to register for the PTA. We are still offering the option to purchase a printed directory, available when you register for the PTA. You will need to do this step annually. The directory is used for Whittier families only, and can be used to contact classmates and parents. Link: https://www.directoryspot.net
