THE MEETING:<br />
APPROVAL OF MINUTES: April Hanes-Dowd moved to approve the minutes and Erin McMahon<br />
seconded the motion.<br />
PRESIDENTS' REPORT: Kathy Loy & Lori Cataldo<br />
A postcard was sent to incoming freshman families that currently don't have other students in the school.<br />
The invite was to encourage the parents to come to the final 2 Parents' Club meetings, as well as the<br />
Blooming Boutique which is this Thursday. They also talked about the $3162.50 deposit that the senior<br />
class put down for the boat for Post Prom. Since we switched the venue to Pinstripes we did not want to<br />
lose the deposit so we donated it to the Advancement Office. They will use the boat for a party of 40 and<br />
bundle it with other things and put together a nice auction item for the Night of the Lion. Erin McMahon<br />
made a motion to switch the funds and donate it to the Advancement Office for this purpose. Linda<br />
Falotico seconded the motion. It was put to a vote and was passed.<br />
PRINCIPAL’S REPORT: Eileen Manno<br />
Next Wednesday is the induction ceremony for the juniors that will be admitted into the National Honor<br />
Society. Eileen also mentioned that the Easter Egg Hunt is this Sunday, <strong>March</strong> 18. Grades for 3rd quarter<br />
will be posted this week.<br />
Eileen clarified some dates for next year's calendar. The first day of school is August 22. August 28 is the<br />
Fashion Show Parent's meeting at 7 p.m. and the Fashion Show Rehearsal will be on Oct 14. Cheers 'n<br />
Tears will be held on February 22.<br />
TREASURER’S REPORT: Mary Baur<br />
Our balance right now is $37,363.61 in the general fund and $6648.67 in the senior events fund. Floral<br />
Show has some costs incurred but will be showing a positive balance after the event this Thursday,<br />
<strong>March</strong> 15. Most of the monies will be distributed at the end of the year, but they will hold back a little in<br />
general to cover some costs that will be needed for deposits on the Fashion Show at the beginning of the<br />
year. It will be important to have a good attendance at April's meeting to vote for the distribution of funds.
CORRESPONDING SECRETARIES: April Hanes-Dowd<br />
The nominating committee is still looking for a Recording Secretary. (Take it from me.... easy job.) They<br />
also need someone to head up the Website/Line Lions/Publicity position.<br />
COMMITTEE REPORTS:<br />
FASHION SHOW: Andrea Trovato<br />
The event is being moved to a Friday, October 19 next year. It will be more of an evening function that will<br />
be more conducive to a social event that the dads will want to attend as well. They will be using the<br />
Meadow Club for the event.<br />
SPRING BOUTIQUE- Diane Beletti & Kathy Copley<br />
The event is this Thursday, <strong>March</strong> 15. You can buy your ticket at the door. There will be flowers, vendors,<br />
beer/wine. Please come out and support your school. It should be a lot of fun!<br />

They will not need faculty at Pinstripes for chaperones as we were required to hire 4 security guards. This<br />

senior t-shirts.<br />
