September 2021

Hello Little School Families!

To our new families, welcome to your first year at the Little School! To our returning families, welcome to another year at the Little School! Whether you are brand new or returning, you’ll see that this community is a special place for all its students!

For introductions, we are PTO co-presidents Katie Gabriello and Katie Roy! Katie G has Johnny, Grade 2, Betsy, K and Teddy, pre-k at the Hood this year, and Katie R has Layla, Grade 2 and Norah, K. This is our second year leading the PTO, and we’re thrilled to return for the 21-22 school year.

The PTO is an inclusive place; by virtue of having a child at the Little School, each and every family is part of the Little School PTO. Whether you donate funds or supplies, attend an event, purchase apparel or support a restaurant night, you are an integral part of our PTO and make our school community such a wonderful, supportive place!

The main mission of the PTO is to work within our school to implement enrichment programs that all of the students enjoy such as author visits, science programs and dramatic historical presentations to name just a few. Our enrichment committee does a fabulous job working with each grade level team to find appropriate curriculum-based programs to bring into the classroom. We would not be able to host these programs and events without the generous support of people like you! With the help of many, we can do great things! We need your ideas and energy to make this another successful year.

We’ll be meeting virtually on Wednesday September 22nd at 7pm via Google Meet. The PTO website is a great resource to bookmark, and you can also follow the PTO on FacebookTwitter and Instagram.

We hope everyone had some fun and sun this summer, and that we’re all ready to get back into the swing of school!

Warm wishes for a happy start of school,

Katie Gabriello & Katie Roy
Little School PTO Co-Presidents
