Dear Sunset Families, Welcome back to all returning families and a big WELCOME to all new families to Sunset Elementary. We are very excited for the new school year! We have our first PTO meeting on Monday, September 16th at 3:30 pm in the Media Room. We would like to invite all parents to attend our meetings! All PTO meetings will be held on the third Monday of the month at 3:30 pm in the Media Room. We are scheduling the meetings at this time so our teachers can attend the meetings. This year, more than ever, the PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) needs YOUR help. The PTO raises funds to provide a wide range of educational enrichment programs for the students. Money raised through PTO helps fund class trips, Music and Art instruction, books, classroom supplies, and much, much more. During the past years, the PTO has provided learning opportunities that may have otherwise been unavailable to our children. As the new school year begins, we once again ask for your support so that we can continue making resource and learning opportunities available to our children. For the PTO to be effective and truly representative of the school, everyone’s participation is essential. Many parents feel that they cannot participate in the PTO because they cannot come to meetings or be on campus during the day. We want everyone to feel that they are part of the Sunset Community. Whether you have 30 minutes or a couple of hours, your ideas, your time and your talents are truly needed. We can match your time constraints and interests to needed tasks. There are endless possibilities in ways you can help. Keep in mind that by volunteering, you will get to enjoy interacting with the kids, become friends with other parents, and accomplish things that truly make a difference. We have many ways in which Moms, Dads, Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents can contribute to Sunset. Research shows that students whose parents are involved in their education have better grades and fewer discipline problems. We promise that the time you give to the PTO and the school will be worth your while—and fun! Please consider volunteering, it really does make a difference in the lives of all our children! The PTO welcomes you to join our meetings to raise your concerns and contribute your ideas and talents to better our school. We would like to thank you in advance for your support. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Have a wonderful school year and we look forward to seeing you at our next PTO meeting, Monday, September 16th, at 3:30 pm. Sincerely, Your Sunset PTO Board Sunset PTO e-mail: sunsetptacodywy@gmail.com Please feel free to send us ideas, questions, comments and concerns. Thanks!
