Hello and We Got This! from the William Land PTA

Dear William Land Families,

We hope that everyone had a safe summer. 2020 has been a year for the history books and continues to test our strength, resolve and ingenuity. For those of you who are new this year – Welcome to the William Land Family! For those of you who are returning – Welcome Back! LET’S GO LIONS!

This school year will truly be unlike any other as we navigate distance learning, virtual meetings, drive-thru events and do our best to ensure that our children continue to learn and thrive. As we begin this very special school year together, please remember that the PTA Board is looking forward to working together with you, the administration, teachers, and staff to bring about all of the fun and educational events and activities we are planning for our children! The PTA is here to support our kids and ensure that they have opportunities to flourish and discover their potential. We want to help provide programs that will positively impact our students and staff and inspire them to achieve great things.

Throughout this school year, you will see your PTA dollars hard at work. Our events will look different this year and so will our fundraising efforts but even still, the money that we raise together will be used thoughtfully to support our teachers and our students with supplies, computer equipment, and online subscriptions to various educational resources. PTA funds are also used to help supplement the cost for our school’s art and science programs and to encourage literacy by funding our Scholastic Reading Counts (SRC) program and prizes.

We hope that you will support these incredible programs by joining our PTA this year. You can join the PTA at any time during the year for just $10. Simply sign up online using the QR code/link. Becoming a member does not commit you to volunteer in any way, although we welcome your help. Joining the PTA gives you voting privileges at meetings and helps make your voice heard. We invite and encourage the participation of all students, parents, grandparents, guardians, alumni and community members.

Prefer not to be a PTA member but still want to volunteer – not a problem! The PTA always welcomes new volunteers and ideas!!
