Council Office Hours at the CRC
Every second and fourth Thursday of the month from 10:00am-1:00pm the Council office will be open for office hours. We are here for you! No appointment needed.

FOR 2019-2020 INCOMING OFFICERS...
WSPTA Region 7 Fall Conference is usually scheduled on a mid-weeknight the week before Labor Day. Please try to avoid scheduling your Board Retreats/new PTA board planning meetings during that week so you can attend this important (and FREE) conference for all local PTA leaders. Attending the trainings and receiving your Leadership Packet provided by Everett PTSA Council is a fabulous way to launch a new PTA year! As soon as our Region 7 Director announces the August 2019 conference date, we will be sure to post it on our Council Facebook page and email all local PTA leaders. Thank you!

Scholarship Basket Donations
Everett PTSA Council is creating a Cooperative Game basket for the scholarship raffle at the WSPTA Convention. I have created an Amazon shopping list with specific, award-winning, cooperative games, a set of cups with lids, and a snack basket. If your PTA would like to contribute, you can make a purchase from the list or send money or an Amazon gift card to Council. If you would like to donate a new game that you already have, you can do that as well! I can answer any questions you may have. I would like to have all the items by April 23rd so that I can make the basket before heading out on April 25. Thank you!
