📣 The Rising Star PTA is looking for a Recording Secretary!

Our PTA has an open Recording Secretary position for the upcoming school year, and we'd love to welcome a new volunteer to our team!

The Recording Secretary attends PTA meetings, takes meeting minutes, and helps keep our organization organized and running smoothly. It's a great way to get involved, stay informed, and make a meaningful impact on our school community.

If you've been looking for a way to support our students, teachers, and families, we'd love to hear from you!

If you're interested or have questions about the role, please email Sarah at [email protected].

Thank you for helping make our school community such a wonderful place! 💙

that’s right….we have SIX new Support Staff members joining Rising Star this year 🤩 we are so excited to welcome these Stars to the team! You may recognize a few as they are regulars around RS already! ✨

Happy Friday, Star Community!

If you are an incoming Kinder or Pre-K family - be on the lookout for a message from me, Principal Risinger, early next week via email and social media with some important dates and details for your start to the year!

As many of you are starting your supply shopping, please check the website again next week to see if the supply lists have had any updates - we have had a couple small changes/additions and will be updating early next week on the website! ✨

Have a great weekend!
