Dear Washington School Families,

Welcome to another exciting school year! Whether you're returning to Washington School or joining our community for the very first time, we're so happy you're here.

As President of the Washington School PTO, I am looking forward to another year of creating memorable experiences for our students, supporting our amazing teachers and staff, and bringing families together. The PTO is more than just fundraising and events—we're a group of parents, caregivers, and volunteers working together to make Washington School the best it can be for every child.

Throughout the year, you can look forward to many of the traditions our families know and love, along with a few new surprises! From the Fall Festival and Holiday Boutique to Family Movie Night, the Book Fair, Teacher Appreciation Week, and so much more, our goal is to create opportunities for families to connect while making school an even more fun and enriching place for our children.

The funds we raise throughout the year help provide classroom resources, educational programs, family events, teacher support, and special experiences that directly benefit every Washington School student. None of it would be possible without the generosity, enthusiasm, and involvement of our families.

One of the best things about our PTO is that there's a place for everyone. Whether you can volunteer at an event, help behind the scenes, attend a meeting, or simply support our fundraisers, every contribution makes a difference. There is no such thing as helping too little—every bit of support strengthens our school community.

Communication is also a priority for us. Throughout the year, we'll keep you informed through our website, email newsletters, and social media, so you'll always know what's happening and how you can get involved.

Most importantly, I hope you'll feel welcome. The PTO is here to support our students, teachers, and families, and I encourage you to share your ideas, ask questions, and become part of everything that makes Washington School such a special place.

Thank you for being part of our Washington School family. I can't wait to make this another incredible year together!

With appreciation,

Shannon Hromyak
