As the new school year rapidly approaches, I would like to take a moment to share some information with those who may not be aware. After serving as Marshall's building substitute for two years, I have accepted a full-time teaching position as Marshall's new kindergarten teacher. This new role will undoubtedly bring additional demands on my already busy and full life. As some of you may know, I have three daughters who attend Marshall, and my husband works a second shift, which means it is just the girls and me throughout the week. Thus, it is often an understatement to say I am busy.
I joined the PTO five years ago and quickly assumed the role of president. Our small group has accomplished numerous remarkable things for the school and families. We have hosted various family fun nights, fundraisers for special projects, shown appreciation to our teachers, and celebrated our students with gifts and end-of-year parties. Notably, I have been the sole PTO member for the past few years. Despite the challenges, I have managed to prioritize the PTO because I strongly believe in its mission to strengthen the Marshall community. I am proud of our accomplishments, and I do not want to see the PTO come to an end. However, I must adjust my priorities, and unfortunately, I will not be able to devote as much time and effort to the PTO. Therefore, I am seeking significant assistance to ensure the continuation of our initiatives and events for our families and students. I am still willing to contribute as much as possible, so you will not be shouldering the responsibilities alone. If you have ever considered joining or helping with school events, I encourage you to reach out by commenting or by email at [email protected].
Here is to a great school year full of new experiences! đ
