FAMILY / HOLIDAY CARDS!!

We want to see ALL of our amazing ISLA Family’s faces as we walk into the school each day!!

If you have a family photo card you are sending out this year, please consider adding ISLA PTO to your list! We’ll be decorating the entryway with all of your beautiful photos as the cards start to arrive!!

Don’t have a card? I’d be happy to help your family create a card (any holiday/New Years or maybe just a color theme your family enjoys) to hang at the school!! Thank you so much to those that have already sent theirs in!! And please always feel free too reach out with any questions!

Please reach out to Caitlin at ptosecretary@isla.school for help in creating a FREE card for your family that we will print & hang at the entrance!!

WHO’S READY FOR THE FIRST ISLA TALENT SHOW?!?!

This year (or 2025, rather) will be our first talent show!! We have a great venue lined up for the performances… They can be a solo, a duet, a group… Students, parents, grandparents/caregivers, LAs & staff are all welcomed & encouraged to participate!! Use the link here to sign up!! We can’t wait to see what uniqueness comes from this great event!! Huge shoutout to MK & Scipi (Scipioni) for coordinating!!

Have a knack for marketing, maybe you enjoy writing or just want to be part of supporting our school??

The PTO Board is looking for an interested party (or multiple parties to co-chair) to shadow the Secretary & Communications Board position this school year to eventually take over moving into the ‘25-’26 school year.

General responsibilities & time commitment is one 60-90 minute meeting per month, along with writing the PTO Corner update for the school’s weekly Noticias email. Myself along with the rest of the board can help provide context and templates if desired, but we’re also happy to see positions flex based on an individual’s skills, bandwidth & needs!! Happy to see what you might have to offer as our school continues to grow & expand in all sorts of ways!! Please reach out to Caitlin Edstrom at ptosecretary@isla.school with questions!!
