FEBRUARY 12 MEETING

Attended by Peggy Daley, LaChon Richardson, Angel Fontanilla, Roberto Carrasquilla, Cindy Philapil, Lisa Twaronite Sone

(1) FUNDRAISING
Still to come: Crab Feed and Tuition Raffle. Should we do another fundraiser? Um...maybe not.
Social event -- a movie night for kids? Maybe.

(2) GIFT FOR MS. P.'S LATE MOTHER? Yes.

(3) PURPOSE OF PARENTS CLUB
Peggy makes the point that the purpose of the parents club is not just to raise funds for the school's operating budget, and says she's working on a budget that allows for regular items such as bereavement gifts, directories, etc.

(4) FURNITURE
The office vacated by the Mission Alliance's Sister Maureen will be turned into a conference room using Centerplate tip money (about $800) for furniture. Also, new furniture will be bought for the teacher's lounge to make it more comfortable.

(5) CRAB FEED
LaChon and Cindy say a banner will be made for the crab feed, and we're adding the option of a $5 kids' plate. Last year, 165 people came, and hopefully even more will come this year.

(6) COOKIE DOUGH FUNDRAISER POSTPONEMENT
The 7th grade's annual cookie dough sale to raise funds for the 8th grade retreat was postponed from February (so it wouldn't conflict with the crab feed) until further notice. March would conflict with the sports committee's candy sale, and April would conflict with the tuition raffle.
