	Back To School Night Format		Moe
Discussion: Changes will be made to Back to School Night program. Faculty will continue to review classroom details, but we will also have a round table forum afterwards. Discussion topics include: discipline in school, classroom management, building self esteem in kids. We will continue to provide food and drink but we will be moving away from the big “hoopla”. We discussed issues w/ fundraising sign ups that usually occurs that night.
Conclusions: We will proceed w/ the new format. We will forgo having fundraising sign ups as parents have the opportunity to volunteer for things during registration and we need to do a better job of using that information and calling those on the list. We will also plan to have a community building night towards the beginning of the school year (possible bingo night) so that people still have a chance to meet new families (kids would be included in this)
Action items: Sr. Moe to work on details of round table forum. PTC will be prepared to provide food and drink for the evening.		Person responsible: Sr. Moe/Amy Marconi		Deadline:
