AMS PTA – Parent Education Night Schedule

This entry was posted in Announcements on by

Dear AMS Parents and Guardians,

The new AMS PTA board wants to take an opportunity to introduce ourselves and let you know about the PTA meeting/parent education night schedule and how to stay connected at AMS. Many of us are experienced PTA leaders, and we have excellent support from AMS Principal, Deborah Brill. We have already begun working hard on behalf of all AMS kids, and we are excited about the new school year!

While it’s probably true that the days of hanging around school with other parents at drop-off may end in elementary school, it doesn’t mean your involvement in school activities should end. The PTA still needs your energy, good ideas, volunteer hours and financial support – now more than ever! We welcome your input, and invite you to become a member of the PTA, and join the AMS eTree and Facebook groups.

Your 2017-2018 AMS PTA Board

Dorothe Piluso, President Kat Bliss, Treasurer
Kim Hale, Vice President Bahrt Arellano, VP of Communications
Payal Sampat, Secretary Christine McLaughlin, Membership
