Announcement body

 

The Parent Teacher Association (PTA) will next meet on Saturday, March 6 at 10:00 a.m.  Please do join the East West School community in this meeting. 

 

We will open the meeting with a mini-concert by our own East-West School Chorus, led by accomplished musician Ms. Amanda Chu. We will be treated to a sampling of songs in four languages – English, Chinese, Japanese and Korean. This short special presentation will introduce parents to our fine choral group, which performs widely. You can enjoy the music while accompanied by some breakfast treats and coffee or tea. 

 

The business portion of the meeting is intended to give parents tools and information they can use to help their children get the most from their education. We will cover news and information specific to East-West from the PTA, Principal Mr. Sherman, Assistant Principal Mr. Smith, and Parent/Community Coordinator Mr. Chow. And finally, we always allow plenty of time for a question and answer period so that the concerns of the parents can be addressed by the school administration.

 

Attention: Parents of 8th Graders! Immediately following the general meeting, an important meeting will be led by Assistant Principal Mr. Smith and Guidance Counselor Mr. Diaz to discuss special activities of the 8th grade class as they graduate from Middle School. Please attend and help plan for these milestones.

 

 

We hope you can join us on next Saturday, March 6.
