In addition we will be giving an introduction to the PTA, our mission, a welcome from our Board and a brief overview of the year ahead. We hope to have as much of our Hyde-Addison community in attendance. If you’re unable to attend, the meeting minutes will be posted to the website afterwards.

BTS Supply Sale Classroom Distribution
It’s time distribute the “Back-to-School Supply Sale” fundraiser items to the classroom before the first day of school! Join us on Wednesday, August 20th to help deliver all of the participating families’ supplies to the classrooms. This event requires as many volunteers as possible to help it run smoothly and efficiently. Students and older siblings are welcome to join in on the volunteer efforts, but young siblings should sit this one out because we have A LOT of supplies all over the room and this could pose a safety risk to our youngest helpers.
