Both the secretary and treasurer’s reports were accepted.
Old business included discussion of
the upcoming dance to be held at F/M from 6:30- 8:00 on Friday evening,
February 17th. Popcorn,
goldfish crackers, punch and water will be served. There will be prizes and raffles during the
dance. Decorations from the Ocean Soup
week along with good tunes will liven up the event! The Boxtop Challenge is going very well at
both buildings. Friendly competition
among classrooms is making this fund raiser a lot of fun. The winning classrooms will be able to enjoy
a trolley ride. Upcoming challenges will
have a trip to the Maine Maritime Museum as a prize and a free book at Bath
Book Shop.
Susan Cyr, music teacher at D/N
School, requested funding for costuming for the kindergarten concert in
March. The PTA approved up to $150 for
costumes.
Nancy Harriman reported that the One
Book One School Ocean Soup project has been amazing. The kids have participated
enthusiastically. Artists and scientists
will be on hand for the culminating event on Wednesday and the week will end
with the annual Beach Day celebration in the cafeteria.
Claire asked Dr. Harriman about the
status of the school budget. Nancy said
that there was a budget retreat for administrators today and news about the
budget should be forthcoming in March.
The PTA looks forward to a presentation by administrators which will
answer questions about the budget and its impact on Bath’s elementary schools.
The meeting adjourned at 7:15
PM. The next meeting will be at D/N
