EMERSON SPRING FLING
Also, here are some pictures from the Spring Fling! Big shout-out to our PTA event planning committee, Elise Kneram, Stephanie Yolish, Daisy Holman, and Madeleine Noonan, as well as all the parents and caregivers who volunteered. We had a wonderful time!
This is one of many ways the PTA supports Emerson and makes it a great place to be. If you are interested in helping Emerson in big ways or small through the PTA, please reach out to next year’s president, Rachel Terp (rachel.terp@emersonelementary.org). We need extra hands supporting the treasurer with reimbursements, planning school tours for new families, designing the yearbook, hosting the monthly Friday Coffees, and the list of meaningful ways to contribute to our community goes on!
TEACHER STAFF APPRECIATION WEEK
We started Teacher Staff Appreciation Week on a Friday with a wonderful breakfast. Thank you everyone for your wonderful donations. Thank you Teachers and Staff for all that you do!
