Dear Friend of Lichen School:
Many people think of parent groups as being all about bake sales. Or they think of power-tripping moms
ruling their domain, like Desperate Housewives and Harper Valley PTA. Well, that's good TV but it's not us.
Lichen School PTA is about men and women working together toward a common goal. That goal is
creating a better space and a better educational experience for our children. We strive to create an
atmosphere where teachers and administrators can do their best work - and so can our children.
Lichen School PTA supports:
There is so much more we can accomplish, but we need your help. Despite what you might see on TV,
our parent group is not a bunch of crazed, power-hungry moms. We are moms and dads, uncles and
aunts, grandparents, and friends who care about children and education. We are welcoming and friendly.
We are your neighbors, and we share many of the same concerns you do.
Joining Lichen School PTA allows you to:
There have been many independent research studies about parent involvement. The results are
startling. When parents get involved in their children's education, grades go up, test scores go up,
children become more likely to graduate and attend better schools after high school, they have fewer
discipline problems, and they are less likely to use drugs and alcohol.
If you can't come to every meeting, that's okay. Volunteering doesn't mean a huge time commitment. An
hour or two a trimester makes a big difference. And we have jobs to fit your time schedule and interests.
We even have tasks that don't involve coming to the school at all.
Won't you join us and become a member? To request a membership form, contact us or download a
form here and send it to school with your child. It's easy - and it really makes a difference.
Sincerely,
Lichen School PTA
