The Foghorn - Issue #1 | 8.21.22
Welcome to the 2022-2023 School Year!
On behalf of the Cottage Lake Elementary PTA, we are excited to welcome all of our new and returning families to the 2022-2023 school year! We had a busy summer reimagining how the PTA can best support and empower the staff, students and community of Cottage Lake Elementary.
As the year begins, we encourage you to get involved with the many opportunities that will be presented throughout the school year. We are a 100% volunteer organization that relies on the support from families and community members to ensure that we can continue to run the PTA programs that make our school exceptional.
We have a fantastic board that is ready to welcome you, answer your questions, listen to your suggestions, and most of all, get to know you and your children. We can't wait for the year ahead and look forward to getting to know each and every one of you.
Sincerely,
Kati Kennedy & Beth Yost
