 from the pta president

As my tenure as PTA President comes to a close, I am amazed at how fast these two years have gone by. It has been a hectic couple of years, but it's certainly never been boring! I've enjoyed every minute and wouldn't have missed the experience.

I want to briefly (for a change!) thank the many people who have helped me the most: my PTA boards and all the committee chairs and volunteers who make our PTA the wonderful organization that it is; Dr. Crissman and Mrs. Pratt and all the teachers and TAs who have shown great patience, support, and cooperation; the "Office Ladies" who meet every request for a favor with a smile; the ladies in the cafeteria and the team of custodians who are always helpful and pleasant; the ladies of the Media Center who graciously share their space with us so many times each year; Teri Bacola, who single-handedly made our yearbook happen this year, as well as doing such an extraordinary job on our school web site, and too many other things to mention here; Angie Gaertner who does such a wonderful job editing the Paw Print; my husband, Richard, and children, Zack, Madeline, and Max, for sharing me unselfishly for the past two years. THANKS TO EVERYONE!!

I'm not disappearing from Apex Elementary, so I won't say good-bye; I'll say, "See you at school!"
