PFLASA News

We voted in a VP at our meeting on May 8th, which means we now have a full slate for our PFLASA Executive Board.

PFLASA wouldn’t be able to do what it does without the dedication of the volunteers who make up the Board, our Parent Reps and Event Chairs–it seriously takes many people to make it work! Thank you to ALL our wonderful volunteers that help us pull it all off.

Please give another warm welcome and an extra clap on the back to our newest VP!

President — Angela Graveline
Vice President — Melissa Sarkar
Treasurer — Anna Land
Co-Treasurer — Siobhán Whiteside

May 21 Parent Coffee & Chat at Central Market

Please stop by Central Market North Lamar on Thursday, May 21 for our last “Informal Parent Coffee” of the school year. We are starting from 8:00 AM on. Grab a beverage and head to the covered porch or outside deck. Open to ALL (new and experienced LASA parents). No sign-ups or risk of being volun-told to do something…. simply a chance to gather, mingle, and breathe a sigh of relief that the school year is coming to an end!

We ask you to RSVP so we have an idea of how many tables and chairs to pull together.

Hope to see you there!

PFLASA Inventory Check Out System

Raptor Parents,

PFLASA has MANY things you can borrow and use for your banquets and/or events. Since the end of the year is quickly approaching, I know there are lots of EOY events being planned.

For easier coordination among all the boosters and other events, here’s the link to the spreadsheet to request items. This way everyone can know where/when things are needed!

Please be mindful that we have many organizations that rely on our items, please treat them as if they were your own, take good care of them and return them clean and ready to use. We’d really appreciate that!

Sincerely,

Sarah Romo de Vivar
PFLASA President 25-26
