Hats Off...

"Hats Off" is a new feature where we will showcase someone or something positive in our school community. So, without further adieu...

Hats off to the Pleasantdale School Board of Education for allowing the Pleasant Dale Park District to move their "Extra Innings" before and after school care program to the elementary school for the 2009-2010 school year. We think this is a great idea and will directly benefit the families and students that take part in this program.

Hats off to Kim Freislinger and the Middle School SEL Committee for inviting motivational and anti-bullying speaker, Jim Jordan of Reportbullying.com to come and speak to students and parents on September 14. The event for parents will take place on Monday, September 14 in the middle school gym from 6:30-7:30 p.m. It's not to be missed!

Hats off to PTA committee chair, Lisa Uckerman for the outstanding job she did on the teacher and staff back-to-school luncheon which was held on the first day of school. Lisa was assisted by her mom, Jan Crnkovich and Pdale alumni, Linda Petrasek in this endeavour. Hats off to you all!
