On
Thursday, September 25, Myers Elementary School held its first PTA (Parent Teacher
Association) meeting.
It
welcomed a guest speaker from the Downriver Community Conference in Southgate
to educate parents on various community programs available to them. In addition
to Diedre Zockheem, principal, and Marilyn Schock, social worker, there were 27
parents in attendance.
This
large group included moms, dads, aunts and grandparents. The group was
attentive, asked questions and appeared to benefit from the guest speaker.
Mrs.
Zockheem and Mrs. Schock gave an overview of our current PTA program, budget,
personnel and upcoming school activities and opportunities for students and
families.
Over
20 door prizes were raffled off compliments of our Kids In Need Foundation
program with Jo-Ann Fabrics of Taylor.
The
group set meeting dates for the 2014/2015 school year and the school hopes to
continue to have a wonderful turnout of involved, caring parents.
