After this week, we will be transitioning to a bi-weekly format.  Look for the next newsletter on Monday, September 16!

Please join us for the first PTA meeting on Tuesday, Sept 10th. The ice cream social kicks off at 6:30pm with the meeting starting at 7pm. All Henry Ford families are welcome and encouraged to attend! PTA meetings take place in the staff room. You can read the agenda for our September meeting here. You can also read the minutes from our previous meeting here. The PTA meets monthly and is a great way to get involved with the various programs and activities offered on campus. 

Participation at our school is strongly encouraged but 100% voluntary. We welcome everyone to pitch in however they're able.  We have in-class opportunities, such as Art-in-Action and Project Cornerstone, where you can help in your child's classroom.   And we always need volunteers for specific events throughout the year, such as our Fall Fiesta, Family Dance, and Pasta Dinner!   

Check out our website for more information about volunteer opportunities, and email volunteer@henryfordpta.org and tell us how you want to help!

Our Direct Donation Drive starts NOW!

The PTA funds many programs that our children benefit from every day, and we need your support.  Programs such as PE, music, art, field trips, and so much more are funded through the PTA.  

Any donation amount is appreciated to meet our funding goals for the school year -- no donation amount is too small! All donations are tax deductible.

For those that don't know, all students at Henry Ford are afforded the opportunity to participate in art lessons above and beyond what their teachers provide. These lessons are taught by amazing parents like you! All you need is a few hours once a month and enthusiasm. All the rest is provided including the lessons and masterpiece information.  Please email aia@henryfordpta.org if you are interested in helping out in your child's class.  Many of the classes have helpers already but the more the merrier. And for those whose children are in the following classes please consider volunteering as these currently don't have any volunteers.
