NEW BUSINESS
Chele Condello suggested that next year we have a room representative for each clas.. The room representative would be responsible for communicating with the PTC on different volunteer projects and organizing classroom activities. To make this official we will need to change the bi-laws. Chele will write out a job description and we will vote on it in June.
Jodi Hess came to the PTC looking for money to give to Ryan Ellis to help fund his trip to Sierra Leone. A discussion followed about where the money would come from. It was decide if there was money left over after paying the expenses from Family Fun Night that we would donate up to $1,000 to Ryan. Chele Condello made a motion to give Ryan Ellis up to $1,000 from Family Fun Night after expenses are paid. If there is not $1,000 leftover from FFN then the board will meet to decide how much to donate and where to take the money from. Second by Jodi Hess. Approved by all.
