There were 19 members present at the meeting, and a quorum was reached.
President Shirley Reed reported that the recent Bingo Night was a huge success, and the committee was thanked for their hard work. Linda Jameson was thanked for creating a five-page outline to help answer common questions for parents who are new to the district, and a goal was set to have a booklet available for the fall. The PTO may include this in next year's budget. The cafeteria staff was also acknowledged for their hard work, and the cafeteria was the only one in the district that had a zero violation report. The spring Art Smart project featuring Milwaukee artist Hugh Lawrence was discussed, and a motion was made to allocate $200 from the fundraising surplus to pay him a stipend. The motion was seconded and accepted. The students will also participate in a penny drive to support a major project of Mr. Lawrence's.
