President's Corner

Dear Alderwood Families,

On behalf of the PTA Board, we want to thank you for your continuous support of our school! As we continue our journey toward reaching our fundraising goal, I want to take a moment to emphasize how important the Jog-A-Thon is for our school. This is the most important fundraiser of the year, and we need your support to make it a success.

As of now, we’ve raised $39,600, which is nearly halfway to our goal of $80,000. If every family contributes, we can easily reach this target and continue providing the exceptional programs, resources, and opportunities that benefit all our students.

Please check your class donation status! We have some exciting rewards for the classes.

Let’s help our kids' classes win these fun rewards! Every donation brings us closer to our goal, and it adds to the excitement. Together, we can make this a fun and successful event for everyone!

Thank you for your continued support. Let’s finish strong and show our students how much we believe in their success!


Regards,


Mahsheed Hosseini
