Flags of many countries across a yellow background

ATS PTA International Night: Saturday, May 10, 5-7PM

 

Last year, Ambassadors from more than 30 countries and nearly 350 members of the ATS community came together for a memorable night celebrating our school’s impressive cultural diversity. If you’ve never attended before, this is an event you won’t want to miss. If you’ve attended in the past, welcome back to an evening of sampling delicious foods from across the globe, participating in international crafts, and enjoying entertainment by international performers!  

 

 To make this evening a success, we will need:

 

 AMBASSADORS To make this evening a success, we will need Ambassadors to represent a specific country by bringing food samples and other cultural information specific to that country (books, crafts, trinkets, heritage items, etc.).

Help us celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week, which runs from Monday, May 5 - Friday, May 9! This year's theme is "Teachers are Like Good Books, They Can Change You Forever." Our students would not be able to achieve the level of success they have without all of our ATS Star teachers and staff. This will be a week to show them how much their dedication and commitment to our children is so greatly appreciated!

 

The PTA will be planning a week of events to celebrate our All-Star Teachers and Staff.
