Parent Alliance Meeting Notes
February 11, 2015

Spring Auction 2015
Saturday, March 28 at Seascape Golf Club.  Tickets are $45/person and will be available online February 27.  Look for a paper coming home with your student on February 20.  The auction committee is still seeking donations.  If you have a service or business with something to donate, or you know someone who would like to donate an item for the auction, please contact Karrie Franks atkarriefranks@ymail.com.  We are hoping to raise $50,000 this year.  This is half of the parent alliance budget and it pays for vital school services like enrichment programs, educational intervention services, art & choir, yard duty, teacher supplies, and professional development for teachers.  Without your support, these programs will be unavailable for our students.  Please donate an item, plan to attend the event, and participate in the auction!
