Have you elected your new PTA officers for next year yet?
Please send in your new officers' contact information as soon as possible to make sure they receive all the training and support necessary for a successful year. Submit this completed PTA Officer Contact List to communications@sfpta.org by May 15th.
Also due May 15th is your PTA's Annual Report. The most important part of this report is documenting how many volunteers hours were given through your PTA during this school year. We report these hours to the IRS and they are a critical piece in our non-profit status as an organization. Find the form and a list of what "counts" as volunteer hours here.

Congratulations to the following PTAs for receiving awards from SF Environment: Carver Elementary, Monroe Elementary, Ulloa Elementary, and Denman Middle School!
Every year, SF Environment presents an Environmental Excellence Award to four local schools that have excelled with composting and recycling at school. Carver started a composting program in the cafeteria last year that the entire community has embraced. Monroe, which started composting ten years ago, has broadened its green efforts to include an outdoor classroom made with natural and recycled materials. Ulloa now has one of the highest waste diversion rates in the school district (75 percent). Denman has a student Green Team with superior commitment to protecting the environment and creating positive change.
Way to go!
