<strong>PTA</strong> News<br />
*Grandparents Day ~ April 9, <strong>Tomoka</strong> invited grandparents to come and visit<br />
with their grandchildren. The <strong>PTA</strong> provided coffee and breakfast and thanks to<br />
Tina Kuykendal our Hospitality Chair and our many volunteers it was a huge<br />
success. The chorus provided entertainment for our guests and under Mrs. Ray’s<br />
direction left quite an impression. The program was wonderful and very heartfelt<br />
as well as the kind words from our Principal Ms. Johnson and a few of our<br />
students. The grandparents then had the opportunity to visit their grandchild’s<br />
classroom. This is a memorable event for both the students and their grandparents.<br />
*Health Fair ~ “Be Brave and Be Healthy” was the theme this year and despite<br />
the rain everyone had a great time. Sheri Bowling was the coordinator and did a<br />
fabulous job lining up all of our participants. Thank you to Sheri for all her hard<br />
work. Also, thank you to Adam Lindquist, who coordinated the “Healthy Lifestyle”<br />
Media contest. <strong>May</strong>or Fred Costello was on hand to announce and congratulate our<br />
winners at the event. Congratulations to the winners and thank you to all those<br />
students who participated, as well as, our wonderful judges!!! It was a huge success<br />
thanks to our hard working volunteers and the many participants who came out to<br />
share information with our families and educate them on maintaining a healthy<br />
lifestyle.<br />
*Reflections ~Recently it was announced that two of our students’ Reflection<br />
entries went on to win at State. We are so proud of Logan Littel and Emily Fichera.<br />
