Highlights from April PTSA Board Meeting:
Our Executive Committee was elected. We appreciate their
willingness to lead our efforts in the 2010-1022 school year.
Co-Presidents: Kristen Allen-Bentsen & Camille Vaska
Treasurer: Anne Watanabe
Secretary: Jennifer Deeny
VP-Communications: Onti Rosen
VP-Hospitality: Maria Nelson
VP-Programs: Sandra Lum
Co-VP Volunteers: Kim Dreiblatt & Shannon Jasman
We are actively looking for a VP-Ways and Means as well as committee
chairs for next year. Please contact Sally Brunette or Camille Vaska
if you are interested.
We approved our 2010-2011 budget with income of $31,315 and expenses of
$35,937.50; our current finances support this budget and enable us to
maintain a reasonable reserve. Most line items were decreased in light
of our smaller school population next year. The other significant
changes were decreasing the amount for special funding requests and
increasing the grant amount from $125 to $150 per certified staff member.
Jamba Juice affinity cards are here! Jamba Juice has launched a
new, national program to support PTSAs. When you make a purchase and
show your special card, they will return 10% of your purchase price to
Issaquah Middle. We'd love to get these cards into the hands of Jamba
Juice fans, so please contact Sally Brunette at
sallybru@comcast.net to get yours.
