Welcome to the Bonner PTA
everychild.onevoice.
Dear Bonner Families,
I hope everyone had a great and safe summer! We, the Bonner PTA, are so excited for the new school year. We hope this year will be very rewarding and memorable for all our Bonner students.
It is that time of year again when we ask everyone to join the PTA. When you, the family, are involved in PTA the child who benefits most is your own; you are taking a major step toward improving your child's school and community, but also your state and national education and health policies. Here is a fact: PTA is the largest parent involvement organization in the United States. PTA was created to better the lives of children, and it continues to flourish because we never lose sight of that goal.
This year we are promoting two different fundraisers, in the information packet they will be discussed in more detail. I wanted to take a moment to highlight the programs that these funds make possible for the students and their families.

These programs and events such as the Spring Fling and the Bonner Bon Voyage (from last year) are events that PTA promotes to encourage family fun and participation. When attending these events, we strengthen our community and bring into closer relation the home and the schools so that parents and teachers together can be unified in our efforts to educate and improve the overall experience of the children's time spent here at John Bonner Elementary School.
Thank you,
Sulinda Davis

We encourage and invite you to join in our efforts to advocate for our children. We want to find a way for everyone who would like to contribute to do so. When you join the PTA, you get a vote in an organization where you can voice your concerns, and work with others towards common goals. Please contact me by email at melissawade@embarqmail.com if you would like to learn about ways you can become involved.
