P-TA Meeting Resolves
Year’s Program
Last evening the P-TA held a
lively monthly meeting with open
discussion on what the main pro
ject of the organization should
be. The group felt that the two
most important projects were the
school band and the hot lunch
program, which are school-sup
ported in most schools, but due
to the unusual strain on the school
budget this year, need some as-^
sistance.
The Fifth Grade presented a
program of skits under the direc
tion of their teachers, John Wood
iel and Constance Erickson, which
were enjoyed.
Fannie Woodiel’s Third Grade
room won the plaque for the
month for having the most parents
present, and John Woodiel’s room
ran a close second. \
Education Week was explained,
and plans for special recognition
of the week announced by Su
perintendent Conrad Potter.
The membership voted to pro
mote a “birthday calendar” plan
as a money making venture. Mrs.
Pearse Walsh was appointed the
chairman of a committee to han
dle the program.
P-TA will sponsor a hot-dog
booth at the Arctic Club Carnival,
with the supplies being donated
by P-TA members.
