Welcome Back
It’s hard to believe, but it’s that time of the year again – the start of another school year. The Rehoboth PTSA would like to welcome all new and returning students and their families back to school. As part of our commitment to our students, one of our responsibilities is to talk with you about the PTSA and encourage you to get involved.
The Rehoboth PTSA is a volunteer organization made up of parents, grandparents, teachers, school administrators, even students with one goal; to foster a nurturing and caring environment to help give our children a better education. We help teachers and school administrators with the resources they need so they can do their best work while making school fun for our kids. Through fundraising efforts and continued parent involvement, the PTSA is able to raise and donate the money needed to purchase educational materials & equipment for the school (and also offer some fun activities in the process!) that further promote your child’s education.
Our success depends on participation from as many parents as possible. It’s a parent’s enthusiasm, support and involvement that inspire children to do their best. Many working parents feel that they cannot be included in the PTSA because they cannot come to every meeting or volunteer for every event. There are endless ways you can contribute. To find out how you can help, visit us at www.RehobothPTSA.org or just let me know if a program or event interests you and when you might be free to lend a hand. We promise that the time you give to our group, our school and our children will be worth it.
On behalf of the entire Rehoboth PTSA organization, I invite you to join us throughout the year and make a difference in your child’s education. We’re always eager to find more great people, just like you, to help us meet this goal. Please join us for our first meeting: Wednesday, September 8th in the Palmer River Cafeteria 7pm.
