A Message from our PTA,
Moving forward, it’s going to look different for the upcoming school year. We have to be mindful and sensitive to our families, and their financial hardships due to Covid. Therefore, we will not be having any major events or fundraisers this year. This includes APEX, Fall Festival, Imagination Machine, Family Prom, etc. We will, however, have passive fundraisers such as eating out at restaurants at various times throughout the year. This will be a “recovery year” for our families. Our goal as the PTA is to advocate for them and give back to the community as best as we can while providing support from a distance.
The new changes for the year also means new members. I am pleased to announce our board members for 2020-2021. They are:
President - Jennifer Castro
Vice President - Patty Franco
Treasurer - Brandee Hardister
Secretary - Brittany Konopacki
Advocacy - Jesse Sandoval
VP of Programs - Lucy Razo
Historian - Gina Thumar
Auditor - Michelle Gardner and Lisa Foster
Parent Engagement - Tiffany Boyse
Spirit Wear - Jackie Shires
Means and Ways - Blake and Meghan Lemke
I leave you with our last event of the year, our first VanderMolen’s Virtual Variety Show. I am extremely proud of how our students shared their talent in different ways. Please take the time to watch our little heroes perform and share the link! Enjoy!
