Part of the special experience of coming to the play for the Green Lake Elementary School kids is getting treats at intermission. Please help by bringing in snacks for the performances. Buy something from the store (or on Amazon or Costco) or make something yourself.

First year Treasurer needed!
The Treasurer is a key board member. Responsibilities include writing checks, keeping the books, and giving financial reports and reimbursements. This is a 1.5 year commitment- we need a first year Treasurer to shadow our incumbent, and then take over the reigns for the 26-27 school year. Please contact anyone on the board for more info. As with all PTA roles, you will be supported by a kind and helpful team of volunteers.
We've started a Discord Server for our school community! Join today and we will help get you started, including linking you into your child's grade level community. We can also connect you to rapid response and mutual aid groups in the area.
See you there!
