CHB PTA - Newsletter #1 - Charles H. Bullock Elementary School PTA

~WELCOME BACK!

Thanks for opening this email. It’s your first PTA newsletter. Look for a weekly newsletter from us. We’ll try and keep you updated on school and community activities. Interested in getting involved with our PTA? Sign up via our website. Join us to learn what we do at CHB and how you can contribute to this great community and beyond.

Our first PTA meeting is on Sept. 21st at 7 pm.
It’s virtual. We will send out a zoom link.

We know the beginning of school is overwhelming so we’re trying to keep the first few newsletters brief. But there’s a lot to digest, so please read the whole newsletter.
