Dear Alderwood Families,

We hope you all had a chance to enjoy a wonderful and restful long weekend! As we move forward together, it’s a perfect reminder of how powerful it is when we unite as a community. When we stand strong together, we create a sense of belonging for our children, showing them the true value of connection and support. Let’s continue to walk the talk and lead by example together, we can be the strong, united community that inspires and uplifts everyone around us!

Don't miss out on one of the biggest events of the year, our Alderwood Jog-A-Thon! It’s time to rally together and help us reach our $80,000 goal, which directly supports vital educational programs and unforgettable school events. This is more than just a run, it's about strengthening our community and making lasting memories for our kids! Sign up today!

Remember 100% participation means 100% fun! A special thanks to everyone who has already registered and made pledges! Every step your child takes, every dollar raised, helps our PTA fund essential programs and events.

On behalf of the PTA, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the volunteers and contributors who help make these events so special. A special thank you goes to Ania Pfeil for leading the 5th grade Girls' Night, and to Veronica Sampietro for leading the 5th grade Boys' Night. These sessions are incredibly important for our students, and we’re grateful for their efforts.

A huge thank you also goes to Sayra Perez for organizing a beautiful Valentine’s Day celebration on behalf of all families to show our appreciation to the wonderful teachers and staff at Alderwood. Thanks to your generous donations to Teachers and Staff Appreciation Week (TASAW), we were able to celebrate with meaningful gifts and expressions of love. If you'd like to continue supporting TASAW, please consider making a donation at Alderwood PTA donation store.

Based on various questions IUCPTA has received, they want us to share these two important pieces of information with you all:

• Message from CAPTA: January 2025 Update

• Rights and Services for Undocumented Children and Children of Undocumented Immigrants

Thank you all for your continued support, generosity, and dedication to our school community. We look forward to seeing you at the Jog-A-Thon on March 12, 2025!

Regards,

Mahsheed Hosseini
