Purpose: The purpose of our Facebook group is to provide an online community for CUSD 200 PTA, Booster Club, and Student Excellence Foundation Presidents and the WWPTA Council Executive Committee. The group is not for students, and we ask that no content be posted by children.

Goal: Our goal is to:

provide a forum for collaboration among PTA, Booster Club, and Student Excellence Foundation Presidents and the WWPTA Council Executive Committee;
share information and tips;
update the community on events and programs; and
showcase the achievements of students, teachers, parents, and other community members.
