PTA/Accountability Meeting Raccoon Summary – Oct. 13, 2004

* PTA has distributed teacher grants in the amount of $100 for full time teachers and $50 for part time teachers. This money assists teachers in getting items for their classrooms that the school budget may not allow. (The printed amounts of $200 for full time and $100 for half time teachers were incorrect in the September Raccoon.)
* PTA membership has now reached 200 members. Our goal is to have 202 members for the 2004-2005 school year. Parents, grandparents and business members are all welcome to join!
* Volunteers are still needed for Arts Around presentations. Remember, no experience is necessary. Prints, presentation ideas and information are provided. A sign up sheet is located in the music room. Contact Monika Barlock or Christine Jones for more information.
* We are getting close to meeting our goal of 100% parental involvement!
* Congratulations to Kathy Talyai for winning a certificate to The Blue Cow restaurant in Morrison. This was the first drawing of the Volunteer Hour forms turned in to the treasure box in the lobby. Remember to track your volunteer hours and return your form by Friday before the next meeting to be entered into the monthly drawing.
* Reflections entries are due Oct. 28th. Remember to pick up forms in the office or online at jeffcoweb.jeffco.k12.co.us/elem/redrocks to enter this national program of arts recognition. Categories include visual arts, photography, musical composition and literature. Contact Guen Sublette for more information.
