PA Update and Upcoming Events

Dear JICS Families,

The PA Executive had a great meeting recently. Below are some of the items that we discussed.

PA Exec Meeting Highlights

• Financial Update – fees and donations collected at the beginning of the year, sponsorships in the new building, and payment towards the Artist in Residence

• The many ways that the iPads are being used by teachers at the school and potential future uses (purchased by PA in 2016-17 school year)

United Way Update

Thank you to the many families that have donated through their corporate United Way campaign. We have raised more than $10K so far. Some corporate campaigns are just beginning so there is still time to contribute. For more information please visit our website.

Upcoming Events

We’re looking forward to some exciting events in the coming months.
