Anyone
can be a PTSA member. Not
just
Newcastle
parents are PTSA members. We
encourage educators, relatives, neighbors, community leaders and anyone
wishing to support Newcastle Elementary to join.
The Newcastle PTSA helps unite everyone for the common good of our
youth.
Member involvement in the PTSA is encouraged at all levels. After
joining, it is optional how active of a member you would like to be.
The PTSA invites member participation in general meetings,
committees, super fun activities and awesome events!
The PTSA also welcomes member volunteering in its’ many programs
and projects but again, it is entirely optional. The amount of involvement
with the PTSA is your choice.
Our PTSA membership goal is to obtain 100% membership for the
2007-2008 school year. The
strength of the Newcastle PTSA lies in our representation.
Last school year, twenty-eight
Washington
Schools
reached 100 % membership, ten
of which were from the Issaquah
School District
and we
are so PROUD to say Newcastle Elementary was one of them!
We
want to extend a huge THANK YOU to all for your visible show of support
and we strive to achieve 100% membership for a third time.
It’s going to be a great year!
Sign
yourself up and your spouse! We
need both moms and dads to support our school.
Reach out to grandparents and relatives!
We welcome community members and all!
Anyone that wants to help Newcastle Elementary represent each and
every one of our students, please join the PTSA today!
WE WANT YOU!
