Hi Hemlock Families!
I hope you are all enjoying your summer and soaking up the last few precious moments of the season. I am delighted to begin my first year as Hemlock School PTA Director. As we begin to prepare for the start of the school year, there are many volunteer opportunities still available.
If you’re interested in becoming a Class Parent you can fill out a lottery application here. Parents selected for each class will be contacted just before the start of the school year with more details on getting started.
If you haven't had a chance yet, you can review the Hemlock PTA committee options and express your interest by using this Sign Up Link. There's something for everyone, whatever your interest, availability and talents! We'll finalize the committees over the next month or so and I will reach out regarding next steps.
We also ask that you please join the PTA. You can purchase your annual membership by using this link. Your membership supports Hemlock and any other Garden City Public School your children attend, whether or not you can volunteer. Membership truly enhances the experience of our students.
Lastly, on Thursday, August 28th at 2:45pm the PTA is sponsoring a “Chalk the Walk” event where students and families are invited to decorate the walkways of Hemlock for the first day of school! It’s a great way to ease any first day of school jitters and students may even have a chance to say hi to their new teachers! The PTA requests that you please bring your own chalk. Additionally, there will be a Kindergarten Playdate held at Hemlock on Tuesday, August 26th from 9 – 10AM. We hope you can make it, as it is sure to be a fun-filled morning.
As we begin this wonderful new school year, I want to thank you all in advance for your participation and support!
