The Richardson Review
May & June 2021
Dear Parents and Guardians,
It is hard to believe we are in the final weeks of the 2020-2021 school year. With that being said, our goal is to finish strong. Your child's attendance and participation in these last few weeks is just as important as in the first weeks of school. So let's continue to work together and help one another. Penguin Pride Growing Strong!
The Richardson PTA online auction runs through Friday, May 7th. The proceeds from this fundraiser are used to fund or purchase physical education and playground equipment, computer equipment, classroom listening libraries, field trips, busing fees, live performances, guest speakers and so much more.

PTA News
The PTA is a non-profit, school-based organization, designed to support our students and staff. The PTA is comprised of all the Richardson parents and/or guardians. All are welcome!
PTA Goals & Objectives
- To support and enrich our children's education
- To facilitate good communication between administration, staff, and parents
- To promote school spirit
- To encourage volunteerism
Please consider becoming part of this amazing team. With some of the current member's children now being in the 5th grader, this would be a great time to join the team and shadow the members who will move on at the end of the school year.
The PTA is also looking for a volunteer to chair the book fair.
If you have any questions or want to be more involved, please contact Sarah Morrison at richardsonptapresident@gmail.com
