Letter from the President


We are off to a great start. The Membership Dance was a big hit. The kids enjoyed it and so did I. I tried to do the Dougie, but according to my kids I did the Octopus" (laughing) but I told them I tried and that is all that mattered. Busta Brown and DJ Lexx Go rocked the crowd. A special thank you to Krispy Kreme for donating 15 dozen doughnuts, SpareTime for donating gift cards and more importantly our JMS Families/Parents who chaperoned and sent in refreshments. This dance could not have been a success without all of your continued support. Remember this year we still need ALL HANDS ON DECK If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please contact me at jmsptsa@gmail.com. Thank you for all of your support. Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.
