FUNDRAISING COMMITTEE
WYWLA Parents and Students,
I want to take a minute to introduce the WYWLA PTSA fundraising committee: Angie, Cara, Shannon and myself. Cara and Angie will be focusing on corporate sponsors. Shannon and I will be focusing on events. Our goal is to provide resources and funds to make this year a success for all students. Every contribution goes to the girls and staff to enrich educational opportunities at WYWLA. Here are some of the things the PTSA provides: learning opportunities, teacher grants, college scholarships, social events, academic celebrations, teacher treats and lunches, equipment, supplies and more!
Usually, a big part of PTSA funds come from the uniform resale. Unfortunately, it hasn’t happened, and no one knows when it will. It’s important that we kick off the year with a different kind of fundraising event. In the upcoming weeks be on the lookout for this new event, as well as opportunities to help WYWLA PTSA achieve, and surpass, its fundraising goals.
We welcome you to join our team. We want your help in any capacity that your time can allow -- from sharing ideas and planning events to pull-through and post-event feedback.
And always remember: Every contribution goes a long way. Every donation matters!
Thank you,
Victor Mendez

IMMUNIZATION UPDATES--PLEASE REVIEW.
A new Executive Order issued yesterday by Governor Roy Cooper suspends but does not waive documentation deadlines for proof-of-immunization and health assessment requirements for school. All immunization requirements and health assessments are now due by September 30, 2020. Students will be granted a 30-day grace period which expires on October 30, 2020. This means students will be excluded from school (in-person or virtually) on October 31, 2020.
