News from the PTFA!

            My name is Mrs. Pamela Hall and I am delighted to let you know that I am going to be the President of the PTFA for the 2014/2015 Academic year! I am most excited to take on this role of President, but my philosophy is “No woman is an island!”  Collective work and responsibility extracts the best gifts from the best people and everyone has something to offer!”  The goal is to work in unity for the greatest kids on the planet, OUR TLS KIDS.  Even though we are all very busy people living in the age of information, I believe that if we all work on one accord for this GREAT school, we will accomplish GREATNESS and inspire our children all the more! 

            Please join me in welcoming Mrs. Paige East Johansen who volunteered to join me in the office of Vice President so that we could get the ball rolling! We are still in need of a treasurer and secretary so please consider joining us.

            We vow to give our very best to you, the teachers and the kids! This year will be a year of off-site entertainment and profitable fundraising so no one will be ‘stuck with the mess!’ however, for more detail than that, you must attend our upcoming meeting which will highlight such activities as the Teen Bank ExplosionAll Saints Day CelebrationMother Son Movie Night, Father Daughter Dance Night and much, much more!!! Please join us on Thursday, October 9th at 7:00pm in the Multipurpose Room and learn how your helping hands will help us meet our goals so that we may leave a legacy of annual school fundraising for the rising stars of TLS.

On a final note, since I have not had the opportunity to meet all of you face to face, please feel free to contact me at[email protected]

Respectfully,

Pamela Hall
