Message from the PTO
President It’s hard to believe that
it is already May with the end of the 2007-08 school year right around the
corner! It has been a very successful
year in terms of fundraising as well as participation in events and new
projects sponsored by the PTO. On
behalf of the Stony Creek PTO I would like to thank all of the families who
contributed in so many ways to PTO related activities. It is great to have such an active parent
group. There are still a couple of
events yet to come this year. Of
course, On May 18th is the annual Spring Carnival and Silent
Auction, our single largest fundraiser.
It takes many hands to put together this important event. So come out, lend a hand and enjoy the day
with your family. At our PTO meeting on May 8th
at 9:30am, we will be voting for the open positions for the 2008-09 PTO
Executive Board. Following is the
slate of officers up for vote: Co-Presidents – Diane Chaiken & Jen Foreman Secretary – Kathy Autieri VP Publicity – Tracy Suchodolski Co-VP Ways & Means – Doris Fox Treasurer-in-Training – Leslie Anne Streeter With this group of
dedicated parents joining our existing Board members, we are sure to have
another outstanding PTO year. See you at Spring Carnival
on May 18th. Diane Chaiken PTO President |

The Stony Creek Community Advisory Committee was formed at the end of the 2005-2006 School Year as a communication link between home and school. The work of the committee has come to a close. Thank you to the parents and teachers who served on the committee over the past two years. The parents included: Melissa Harbold, Kathy Autieri, Diane Chaiken, Kathy DeLuca, Desiree Campbell, Judy Chinn, and Angela Johnson. The teachers included: Joann Groark, Janice Walsh, Trish Reardon, and Bernie Gentilcore. The efforts of the Stony Creek Community Advisory Committee helped to improve our school community.
