The PTA needs you The PTA is currently in urgent need of a few good parents and teachers to step into leadership positions. This is a great opportunity to collaborate and advocate for SMS and LES students and teachers. Applications are available at the offices, online at www.Somersdist29.org, or pta@somersdist29.org. Our 2018 Somers/Lakeside PTA Alumni Scholarships have been handed out. This year, we are happy to say, that due to our budget availability, and your accepting vote, we were able to give away $2000 to these hard-working students. The applicants were all amazing! Thank you for allowing us to help them continue their journey into higher education.
Our winners this year are: • First Place: Caley Halloran - $1,000 • Second place: Michael Buls - $500 Tied for third: • Milena Spivey - $250 • Griffin Fischer - $250
Thanks to Mr. Luke Johnson who gave Caley such a special congratulatory speech. She looked very happy!
