Happy Friday, Mustangs – and happy 1st Day of the final semester of the 20-21 school year… hard to believe, but we’re 1/2 way there! 🙂

Rogers PTA Board Is Looking for Board Member Volunteers for the 21-22 School Year! Coming up at the General Association meeting scheduled for Tuesday, March 16th, Rogers PTA will be holding its annual election for Board members for the 21-22 school year. Please note that per by-laws, in order to participate as a PTA Board member and/or to vote, you will need to join PTA as a member (only $10 online here – more info below also!). If you are interested in a Board position (full list of officers here), please download and complete a Board Interest form and email to: rogersmiddleschoolpta@gmail.com (subject “PTA Board 21-22”).
REMINDER Please also note PTA is still seeking volunteers for open positions for this current year.
