1. BTSN taco truck was super success, made $450 profit, anything over $300 is a good
fundraiser
2. Up to date have raised $20,000, which is the annual goal for PA. Will celebrate on Nov. 9 th
from 10-11 am. We will need parent supervision for the event.
3. Bylaws state that we need to fill 6 positions to have an active PA. We sent out a google doc
to recruit for November and December events. We will need an exhibition committee and
some fundraising for that event. The exhibition will be on Dec. 14 th , more information to
come.
4. We are also looking to form various committees that will help support the PA and school in
various ways. We have a google spreadsheet that has been shared. Please sign up if you are
interested.
5. Fundraising- viewed monthly reports on excel spreadsheet. Taco Sale brought in $450,
Donations $67, Logo Wear $415. There was discussion around new Logo wear and involving
the students to be a part of this process. The team also discussed using money to support
the 8 th grade trip, amount that needs to be in reserves by law, the unrestricted funds for
operations, and using money to gift teachers via proposals. The board also discussed
funding a Day of Skating for students as they did last year. Sponsors usually make up $5,000
of the budget, currently it is only $1,500.
6. There was discussion around starting an Einstein Bagels pick up rotation. Signups will be
sent out and the PA will bring to the school for students and staff. There was also discussion
about having Yoga for parents and/or teachers. We need an 8 th grade committee to help
with the transition into high school. The president also shared that there is a PA
Collaboration, Booster Club, that will send out weekly emails and messages to support
fundraising specifically for sports.
