Late August 2010

Welcome back Baker families! We hope you all had a great summer and we extend a warm welcome to new families in our school. Here's an update of changes to our site:
  • Notably, we are providing Room Parents with a Handbook download that will guide you through the experience and give you more support. One of our goals this year is to have Room Parents work more closely with PTO to publicize the amazing grade activities and special events we saw happening last year. Fundraisers, performances, athletics... let us help you build support across the grades for what your kids are doing! Visit the Activities & Volunteers Page for more info and Room Parents Resources to see the downloads.
  • Also, to make this site work more collaboratively with the Baker School site, we have eliminated the separate PTO Calendar. We will still list important dates (and remind you via the newsletter!), but the Master Calendar will be maintained by the school and we will link to it from our site. 
Stay tuned for more improvements and let us know what you think! Email bakerpto@gmail.com for general inquiries and bakerschoolnews@gmail.com for website/newsletter/email specific issues. Thanks!
