| Welcome to all my favorite Wildcats! The PTSA wants you to feel welcome and be a part of not only the PTSA but be a part of Bolton! And we want the students to be as involved as the parents and community stakeholders! As our students transition through high school, I look back at what PTA or PTSA involvement has meant over the years for a lot of parents. At the elementary level, there is a sense that parents are supposed to participate…go on field trips, send in supplies, read in the classroom, bake items for teacher luncheons, check homework, ensure that your child is sent to school well-rested, well-nourished and ready and on time for each school day. At the middle school level, all the same things apply, but there is a sense of understanding that you have the option to be involved. As the students transition through middle school they either blatantly or passively let you know they don’t want you to be there. And now we are here at the high school level… many parents feel that it is their job to “step back” and let their student rise or fall of their own doing and let the system take it from there. So, as a high school parent, what do you do to be involved yet allow your student to begin to transition into adulthood? We may certainly start by creating an atmosphere where learning is important and expected. Encourage our students to be on time, every day, ready to learn. Get involved in the activities that your students are interested in. Be willing to offer your talents and time to support the faculty and staff and the PTSA. Encourage your student to join the PTSA and learn the process to begin to be an advocate for not only their education, but for their fellow students and those who are following behind them. So as we begin our new school year, take a fresh look at how you wish to be involved in your student’ s education. I invite you to join PTSA, participate when and where you can and be a part of our bigger Bolton family! Please fill out our volunteer form and let us know where you might want to plug in and be active. If you don’t see anything listed on the form that catches your eye, please take a moment to jot down where you think you might want to help. I look forward to a fabulous and successful year!
