Dear Parents:

On behalf of the ATS PTA and its Executive Board, welcome to the 2011-2012 school year! We want you to know about the opportunity to participate in the many PTA programs and activities planned for the exciting year ahead, our theme for which is “Make A Difference.”

ATS has many traditions, most notably active parental involvement and school support through the PTA, whose mission is to support and enrich every child’s learning experience through its special programs and activities. Join today and help us reach our goal of one membership per family! Please complete and return the ATS PTA Membership Form as soon as possible. Membership dues are $10.

You can “Make A Difference” in this year’s PTA program – including our educational, fundraising, social, community building, and communications activities – by completing the pink Volunteer Sign-up Form. Please consider lending your personal talents to help our children and our school. The rewards of volunteering for the ATS PTA are many – including the camaraderie enjoyed from making new friends, the positive feeling of personal achievement, and, most significantly, the joy of doing something special for a very special school.

Again, welcome to ATS! We look forward to your ideas and involvement – individually and working together – to help us“Make A Difference” in the lives of our children and the ATS community.

Sincerely,

Carol Ann Bischoff
President, ATS PTA 2011-2012
