Welcome Back to Homestead!
We are thrilled to welcome all the Homestead children and staff back this September. A special welcome goes out to our new parents and children joining the district this year. Homestead is a special place, and we are excited to have you become part of our community. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out.
We hope you enjoyed the PTA-sponsored balloon decorations that greeted us on the first day of school. A big thank you to the many children who participated in our “Chalk the Walk” event - it certainly added a splash of color to our walkways!
We also want to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Homestead teachers, administrators, and staff for their tireless work this summer. They have planned every detail to ensure our children’s health, safety, academic, and social experiences are exceptional. We deeply appreciate their dedication and hard work.
Join the PTA
There are plenty of opportunities to volunteer and help out with the PTA. If you’re unsure about the time commitment involved to volunteer, consider joining as a member first and volunteering when you can. We value each and every one of our members and hope we can achieve 100% participation in the PTA this year. Visit www.gardencitypta.org today to join.
A special thanks to the parents who have volunteered to be class parents this year. These parents are such an important liaison between the parents and the PTA. We really appreciate your time and commitment to this vital position.
Lastly, we would like to thank all the parents that volunteered for the various Homestead Committees. Your help, creativity, and dedication are vital to the success of our planned activities and events. If you have not signed up yet, there is still time to join a committee: Homestead Volunteer Sign Up Genius
