Welcome back to another great year, Penguins!Dear LPES families,
I hope everyone is settled into the school year. I have enjoyed seeing so many returning families and meeting our newest families that are joining our wonderful LPES community. As you may have heard, the LPES PTA will be using a new platform, Memberhub, for all of our communications this year. We will no longer be using the PTA liaisons to send out newsletters, event reminders, sign-ups, etc. It is easy (and FREE!) to sign up to Memberhub! All you need to do is click on this link: https://laurelpark.memberhub.com/join/zi2eku, enter some basic information and you’re in! Memberhub is safe and private. We are only using the information you provide to send you PTA updates. Signing up to receive communications does not automatically mean you are signing up to become a PTA member or a volunteer. While we would love to have everyone join the PTA and volunteer their time, that is not our goal with getting everyone to log onto Memberhub. It is important to us for you to stay informed of what is happening at LPES. If you have any questions, please email: laurelparkespta@gmail.com. If you are interested in becoming a PTA member, please go to laurelpark.memberhub.store. There will be a PTA general meeting on Thursday, August 16th at 6:30pm in the media center. We will be voting in new officers and will update you on what is to come for the 2018-2019 school year. We are really excited to meet you and share our plans with you. You don’t have to be a member to attend. Thank you. Stephanie Mitchell LPES PTA President
