PTA UPDATE FROM MR. COYNE AND THE PTA
We had great participation in our November PTA meeting. Thanks to everyone who came had had their voice heard for PTA elections.
We are excited to announce that we have a new PTA leadership team:
Cheryl Kelly -- President
Monique Penner--Vice President
Donna Pate -- Treasurer
Lillian Gomez -- Secretary
These women have stepped up to help lead the PTA this year and for that we are extremely grateful. Their ideas and enthusiasm are contagious and I am excited to be working with them to help lead the fundraising efforts and community support to benefit our students. It's gonna be a great year where we learn and grow together and do amazing things for DGS. Special thanks to Violeta Garcia and Taryn Cox for your leadership in the process. We have lots of great events coming up in December like Dinner Night on Dec 7th and the Winter Gala on the 20th and 21st. It's a wonderful time of the year to show our gratitude and please know that we are grateful to you, our parent community for all you do.

We're nearly halfway to our fundraising goal: please check it out, make a pledge, and share!
