Due to lack of a quorum last night (apparently -20 wind chills made folks want to stay indoors - haha) the regular PTO meeting could not happen. President Parrow has rescheduled the meeting for February 4th at 7pm in the Multi-Purpose Room at Newell School. She says they’ve got lots on the agenda, so stop by and take part in Newell’s Parent Teacher Organization!
There are no dues to join, everyone is welcome to attend.
