Without a doubt, Cascade Ridge has excelled in parent, teacher, and student involvement, and our successes at our school are tied directly to continued enthusiastic participation from all of you. Look for opportunities, both big and small, to volunteer on committees or in areas that excite you! The Volunteer Form in your First Day Packet has options for everyone – please ask if you have questions about any of them or would like more information.

Finally, I encourage everyone to attend our first General Membership meeting on September 25th at 6:30pm in the Coyote Café. At this meeting we will introduce the Executive Board and vote in some new members, approve the mission and goals for the year, discuss and update the 2013-14 budget and provide more details about plans for the year. Please bring your questions – we welcome and appreciate them.

I’m looking forward to a great year. I hope you will contact me anytime with suggestions, questions, concerns or general feedback. Go Coyotes!

Ann Brooks,
PTSA President
