Parents as this is the start of the new school year, this week is full of Parent Meetings, during the rest of the year these meetings are more spread out.  Please jump in and try to attend at least two meetings as this will start the academic year off strong and aid you as you attempt to be connected to and knowledgeable about your student's high school.  The more you know the better you will be able to help them have a successful journey through their high school years.  All parent meetings have administrators and staff members in attendance, an excellent way for parents to get to know these people in a comfortable setting.  I will be at all of these meetings and would love to put faces to some of your email addresses, be sure to say hello!

Here are this week's meetings in chronological order:

Monday is PTSO at 6PM in the Media Center.  This is the Parent Teacher Student Organization (usually PTA at the elementary school level).  PTSO raises funds for student needs and activities, organizes parent volunteers for various school events, plans teacher appreciation activities, and works on putting a public and positive face on Plantation High in the community.  Anyone can join PTSO, annual membership is $5, must be a member to vote, come and check it out.

Monday is also SAF immediately following PTSO at 7PM in the Media Center.  SAF is the School Advisory Forum- all parents, students and interested community members are considered members and encouraged to attend, no membership or joining is required. At SAF you will learn about and take part in discussions including issues such as facilities, transportation, safety, boundaries, magnet, Innovation Zone, school board policies affecting our kids, state and national legislation that could impact us.  SAF is also the parent body responsible for electing the parent representatives to sit on SAC.  If you are interested in serving on SAC this year please email a brief note tonight or tomorrow to Gail Choate at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Teachers and Staff were welcomed back to Plantation High School at the end of summer break 2010 with a homemade breakfast cooked by the PTSO moms and their families.  SGA pitched in with extra hands to help pull off the event.  Good food and smiling faces to start the new school year.  The food that was not eaten was promptly driven to the Cooperative Feeding Site in Ft Lauderdale where they were thrilled to receive the fresh fruit and still warm breakfast dishes!
