President's Note - 1/17/22

Hello Panther Families!
 

Today is a day off for students and teachers because it is Martin Luther King Day, a federal holiday established 27 years ago as a national day of service. This day was established to honor the life and legacy of Dr. King, and to encourage all Americans to volunteer to improve their communities.  Dr. King is remembered as a husband, father, friend, and fierce advocate for the betterment of all people. Honor his memory by organizing, volunteering, and spreading the word. 

 

This year, Plano ISD planned its 35th annual tribute event celebrating the vision of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and the diverse Plano ISD community with the theme:  Together We Honor the Past, Inspire the Present and Change the Future. This event has been postponed and now will be held as a virtual celebration at a date still to be determined. It will include highlights from the winners of the student writing contest, the Diversity Leadership Award nominees and winners, top artwork selected from the student art contest, and more.

 

Our next General Assembly Meeting will also now be virtual. Please mark your calendars and join us at 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, January 25th for a virtual SMS PTA General Assembly Meeting and Coffee with Ms. Kinnard.  Please sign up in advance for this meeting HERE;  login information, an Agenda, and other information will be sent out the night before. We will be voting on budget amendments and electing a Nominating Committee.  Please consider serving on this very important committee that will be vetting and selecting candidates for your SMS PTA Executive Board for the 2022-23 school year, and email me if you are interested.  Thank you!
