President's Message

Spring Book Fair has arrived! This much loved event will take place in the school library Monday - Friday 7:30am-8:05am and Monday-Thursday 3:05pm-6pm. If you haven't done so already, please consider volunteering for a shift here. We can’t wait to see you all at the fair!


Our composting program was featured this weekend in the TownLift - check out the great article here and congrats to the students, faculty, and volunteers who have made the program such a success! 


Planning for this year’s Running With Ed (May 20) is underway. RWE is one of Park City Education Foundations largest fundraisers and our participation means great things for our school. Our new RWE chair, Sharon Wallace, is looking to establish a committee for the event. If you aren’t planning on running this year but would still like to take part in ensuring the success of the Jeremy Ranch Elementary exchange, please connect with Sharon, sharonwallwell@gmail.com. You can also sign up here to help. 


If you ARE planning on running, please keep in mind that the price jump for registration happens on April 1. If you would like help joining or forming a team, please email me, jaimewoolley1982@icloud.com.


Thank you to those who attended last week’s PTO meeting. You can find meeting minutes here. Our next meeting will take place on Tuesday, April 18th at 8:30am in the school Faculty Lounge. We will be voting on PTO board positions for the 23/24 school year. You can access the Nomination Form here and Position Descriptions here. Please contact jrescommunications@gmail.com for further information. We hope you’ll consider joining us in supporting students and staff and shaping the future of our wonderful school.


Sincerely,

Jaime Woolley

PTO President
