PTSA General Membership Meeting
Staff appreciation week is our last large event to acknowledge the efforts of our Enatai teachers and staff members. We are hoping for many volunteers from ALL GRADES to make these events successful. Please note that we have scheduled 2 days, Tuesday and Thursday, when parent volunteers are not needed at the school.
To sign up, click on the links below
Monday, May 6th – flower bouquets
Students bring cut flowers to school and volunteers will arrange floral bouquets for the Enatai entire staff!
Tuesday, May 7th – candy buffet
The staff will receive bags to choose their favorites treats from a candy buffet. Monetary donation needed.
Wednesday, May 8th – catered lunch
Nibanna Thai will cater lunch. Volunteers to set/clean up, and to bring dessert and beverages needed.
Thursday, May 9th – thank you notes
Each staff member will receive a special package with notes from our children. We need these notes in advance to sort and package prior to delivery on Thursday. All students are encouraged to write a note of gratitude to their teachers and any additional staff members they would like. (Staff List click here) Please write the staff member’s full name on the envelope. For example, write Mrs. Westmoreland, not Mrs. W. Please drop off the notes in the large red Staff Appreciation Mailbox located across the music room starting on Thursday, April 25th. The last drop off date is Monday, May 6th.
Friday, May 10th – coffee and breakfast pastries
Volunteers will make lattes and offer breakfast pastries. Volunteers and Nepresso machines to borrow needed from 8:30-11am!
Every year, the Enatai PTSA recognizes and celebrates a few of the wonderful people who help to make our vibrant school community great by giving out The Golden Acorn Award, The Outstanding Educator Award, and new this year, The Unsung Hero award.
We would love to have your help in the nominating process. Do you know a special person who goes above and beyond, or even one who quietly supports our community without much fanfare? Do you know someone else whose efforts deserve special recognition this year? We'd love to hear about them! Please take a moment to fill out this anonymous nomination form. This survey will close on May 17th and the awards will be announced at the Carnival on June 14th.
Space Base Alpha
Math in space! Come be an astronaut for a night on Star Base Alpha - help the crew as you navigate through the galaxy, exploring planets, meeting aliens, and keeping the Star Base running. We'll need your team spirit and math skills - and you'll get to prove that you've got the Right Stuff! Registration is open for all grades - register as a team of 4 or as an individual (and we'll help you find a team). Students may request a PTSA scholarship for ticket purchase by emailing Principal MacDonald with your request.

Attention 4th Grade Parents! Is your student returning to Enatai next year for 5th Grade? Fifth Grade is a special time for students at Enatai. As the oldest students at the school, 5th Graders can look forward to their own special activities and events. Many of these activities are exclusive to 5th Grade or are the responsibility of the 5th Grade families!
The first of these is the 5th Grade Haunted House fundraiser. This event is designed, built, and staffed by the 5th grade parents and students to raise funds for 5th grade's use. In conjunction with Spooky Spaghetti, this event is the first BIG community event of the year! Planning starts as soon as school begins or earlier and it is the 5th Grade's responsibility to take on this task! Come hear a proposal for next year and bring your own ideas to the table! Other events we will briefly discuss are 5th Grade Sweatshirts, our Carnival booth, fulfilling Yearbook needs for the special 5th Grade section, and other activities reliant on the families in our grade.
This meeting is presented by some of your fellow 4th Grade Parents with help from the 5th Grade Teachers, PTSA, and past and current 5th Grade Parents. Let's prepare for next year!
