HELLO EVERYONE I MISSED THE FIRST PTO MEETING. I DO PLAN TO ATTEND THE NEXT MEETING, THIS IS MY FIRST TIME BEING APART OF THE PTO BOARD OR VOLUNTEERING IN MY CHILDS SCHOOL. I JUST WENT ON TRIP AND CHAPARONED WHEN NEEDED. IS THERE ANYTHING I SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THE FIRST MEETING THAT I MISSED. OR IS THERE ANYTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO MAKE THE SECOND MEETING BE MORE SUCCESSFUL.I LOOK FOWARD TO MEETING EVERYONE SEE U THEN MARY99. I HAVE 4 CHILDREN MY 6 YR OLD IS HERE MY OTHER THREE ARE HIGH SCHOOLERS.
mindy if you go to the message board to the first section (involvement, challenges, etc.) look on page two there is a post labeled meeting ice breakers think that might be a start!
"When you stop learning you stop growing."
I have big name tags for everyone to fill in as they arrive. They put their name in the middle then I have other info for them to put in each corner: # of kids, grades they are in, is this your first meeting, new to this school. We've used this before and put fun things like your favorite color, favorite food, etc. Then we give the parents a few minutes to mingle and look for others with the same answers.
We are having our first PTO Meeting tonight and want to start the meeting off right. Does anyone have a fun game or Ice Breaker to do the first couple minutes of the meeting?
Mindy
