Join Us Wednesday for PTO Kick-off + Bear Name Reveal
Dear Miner Families, Caregivers, Teachers, and Staff,
Week 1 is behind us—whew! Thank you to everyone who stopped for coffee and donuts. It was a great way to start the year together. Now it’s time for our first PTO meeting of the year. All parents, guardians, and staff are already members—there's no cost to get involved, so all you have to do is show up.
Wednesday, Sept. 3 | 6:00–7:00 PM | Miner ES Cafeteria (in person only for this first meeting of the year)
Pizza + Childcare: Childcare in the library (with pizza for kids) provided by Christ City Church, which holds weekly services in Miner's building. (Big thanks to their community for also donating school supplies before the year started!) PTO is providing pizza for everyone else.
Our agenda includes:
What the heck is a PTO, anyway? Quick PTO 101—who we are, what we care about, and where all that volunteer time and donated money actually goes.
Events & Plans for the Year: From big ideas to quick plug-in opportunities, there’s something for everyone.
The Big Reveal: Our Miner Bear has an official name. Be there to hear it first.
If you can’t make it, we’ll send a follow-up email with the slides, links, and details so you don’t miss out.
Looking ahead: while this first meeting will be in person only, future meetings will be hybrid. We encourage you to join in person when you can—it’s one of the best ways to connect with other Miner families, peek into the gym where your children run around, and finally see the staff office every child pauses to stare into with wide-eyed curiosity (hint: it’s right in front of the cafeteria).
We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday.
Warmly,
The Miner PTO Board
