On behalf of the Julian Curtiss Parent Teacher Association (JC PTA), we would like to welcome back returning families, as well extend a warm welcome to those new to our wonderful school and community. We know this summer had many families tackling the question of full return to school or remote learning but know whatever decision you chose we are here for you! The JC PTA is made up of committed parents and teachers who strive to support and enhance each child’s educational experience throughout the school year and this commitment is stronger than ever.
The JC PTA has traditionally run many wonderful programs such as United Nations Day Parade and International Food Tasting, Music Café, Movie nights, Book Fairs, Bingo night, and so much more! Whether we end up hosting these events in person or virtually, we are committed to keeping our school community connected and engaged.
Our membership campaign and many of the events that have been mentioned raise money to support field trips, staff development, after school program scholarships, and special classroom equipment. We encourage you to join the JC PTA!
The JC PTA also provides a significant contribution to the school through our volunteers. As a volunteer, you will take an active role in your child’s education and make a meaningful contribution to the school, while meeting new parents and making new friends! Families play an essential role in navigating their child’s educational experience and being connected to the school community provides access to resources and activities that support the uniqueness of your child(ren).
Throughout the year, the JC PTA will host informative virtual PTA meetings, which we encourage you to attend. We offer meetings with opportunities to better understand what your student is or will be learning, and how you can support that learning at home. We also offer meetings on various issues surrounding education that affect our school and community where you will have an opportunity to ask questions, express concerns, and offer input. Joining the PTA is the best way to get to know your child’s school, the programs it offers, and our parent/teacher community.
We look forward to welcoming you into our Julian Curtiss family. Please feel free to contact us with any questions. We hope to see you soon!
Sincerely,
Michele Tierney Jill Ernst
