Dear Chantilly Charger Families,

While summer breezes, backyard barbecues and pool parties may currently occupy everyone’s attention, it’s time to kickoff the annual Back to School membership/forms/registration event! It is our intent to make the process as simple as a Staples Easy button. You can pay for your membership, make a donation, and register for practice tests and All Night Grad Party reservations and seat raffle tickets (for seniors only) online.  You can also download the forms and bring them to Chargin’ In on Tuesday, August 30, and meet your officers and committee chairs at the PTSA table.  Online payments can be made via the Pay4SchoolStuffOnline button. Also, you can sign up for our online newsletter.

As a Chantilly PTSA member you are an automatic member of the National PTA, the largest child advocacy organization in the nation; ‘every child one voice.’ Take that one step further, and add ‘one school’ for Chantilly High School. As a member, you have a voice, and we want to hear you, whether at meetings, events and programs. Parents play the most influential role in their children’s lives, and the Chantilly PTSA is here to support all Parents, Teachers and Students.

In keeping with our goal of one school, our objectives include: outreach, inclusion and enabling our kids to be safe, healthy and successful. Please join us in reaching our goals. We have been working all summer to enhance the PTSA and align our offerings with our objectives. Some of the new developments include:

• Academic Booster Committee included in and a vital component of PTSA
• Booster Liaison Committee to foster relationships with all Booster Clubs
• Student Directories included with Parent and Teacher membership dues
• More ACT/SAT/PRA Practice Tests Dates

It’s going to be a great year! We invite you to make a difference. Our meetings are usually the 3^rd Tuesday of the month. Feel free to contact me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

Enjoy the rest of the summer and we shall see you in school!

 

Very truly yours,

 

Tina Wallace

Chantilly High School PTSA President
