Dear East-West Parents and Guardians,
The Parent Teacher Association (PTA) will hold its first meeting of the 2011-12 school year on Saturday, October 1st at 10:00 A.M. Please do join us and start off the new academic year by joining the East-West School community for this meeting.
Our meeting will begin with a complimentary breakfast buffet. 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 and Assistant Principal Ms. Panday. We will also be conducting our annual membership drive. If you are parents of newly enrolled students, you will find our meetings to be an essential means for gathering information concerning your new school and meeting parents who can share their experiences with you.
Parents of 8th graders are especially encouraged to attend this October 1 session as, Mr.Diaz, our Middle School Guidance Counselor, will be hosting a meeting that will be held immediately after the general meeting for parents of 8th graders in order to provide information and answer questions regarding:
• The High School admissions process
• The specialized high school admissions exam
• How to fill out the application
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.
We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, October 1, 2011.
Sincerely,
PTA Executive Board
East-West School of International Studies
