I would also like to send out highlights from last night's meeting.  With timely information given out now, rather than after the fact. Such as nominations are still open for the PTA election, when Brighter Bites begins, committee positions that are open, Class Parents still needed. I will draft a notice and send it shortly to be approved.

Thank you,
Amanda
