Dear QAE community,
We’d like to thank you for participating in this year’s Jog-a-thon. This was the third and final PTSA fundraiser of the year, and as such will help us to fund many of the programs and staff that we believe are critical to our children’s education. Your time and generosity directly support our Social Emotional and Project Based learning programs, school counseling, art and music instruction, and Instructional Assistants and tutors. But most importantly, the Jog-a-thon is a community-building event that our kids lead, and by all accounts it was a great time for all involved. If you’d like to learn more about how your contributions will be spent next year, we encourage you to attend the final PTSA meeting of the year – scheduled for Thurs., June 12 at 7 pm. We look forward to seeing you there, and in the meantime please enjoy this last fun month of school. Sincerely, QAE PTSA Step Right Up! It’s time for the QAE Annual Field Day!
