A note from the Presidents

A note from the PLT President

Welcome back to another great year at Goolsby! School is in and summer is out. Well, the summer months are behind us but the heat is still lingering around, right!

First, I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Laurie Crofton and I am the President of Goolsby's PLT, our school's Parent Leadership Team. Our mission statement reads:

The mission of the PLT is to carry out activities that support, promote, provide and enhance the educational experience of the students of Goolsby. The PLT provides support for special events and programs that are unable to be funded by other means. The PLT also gives parents and staff the opportunity to work together to make Goolsby an exceptional school for our children.

One of the main goals of the PLT this year is to continue to enhance communication between the parents, teachers and staff bringing everyone together to work as a team for the good of our children. We feel very strongly that by 'Working Together' we can achieve great things.

To make this year a success we need you! There are so many different ways to get involved. We welcome everyone and appreciate any time or talent you can offer. Please take a look at the Volunteer section on the Goolsby PLT website for some of the many ways you can become involved at the school, in the PLT and ultimately in your child's education.

The PLT Board has been working diligently throughout the summer months and these past couple weeks to ensure a successful year. We have some exciting things coming up so be sure to take a look at the "September Happenings " and "Calendar of Events " pages to read about our upcoming events.

I personally would like to thank all of the officers and committee chairs for the countless volunteer hours they have already put into this years preparation and planning. Each and everyone of you are vital to the success of this organization. I can't express enough how grateful I am for you, your dedication of time and your talents that you continue to contribute to our 'Team'. Thank you!

We are all looking forward to another incredible year at Goolsby! There are many new families attending Goolsby this year and we hope to meet most if not all of you soon. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or another Board member.
