PACE Weekly Newsletter - May 30, 2007
1) PACE Planning Meeting - Monday, June 4, 7pm, Churchill Elementary Community room, 520 Secretariat Lane (Wolf Crossing Rd. and Secretariat Lane), Oswego: Grab your favorite drink and join us for our planning meeting. We will be planning for next year's events. We are exploring small events such as coffees to talk about things to do with our children outside of school to larger events such as our Science Night. There are opportunities for everyone to get involved - whether it's helping out the day of the event, sending in baked goods, or having a major role in planning. So, come on by and help us out with planning for next year or check out what we're planning. This organization is for all of our parents and our children, and our organization is here to serve you. Please email Allison Boldridge at boldridge@comcast.net with RSVP, questions, or suggestions.
2) Urgent! State Funding - Our last chance this year! We are asking families to write or call their state legislators before the end of May asking for their support of this item. Following is letter from IAGC:
ILLINOIS
ASSOCIATION FOR GIFTED CHILDREN
===============================================
Greetings,
am asking our
members and friends to
call, e-mail, fax, and send letters to legislators of both
houses asking them to vote for the $5 million in the final
budget.
Please do this before the end of May when legislators
will adjourn. IAGC needs your support to let legislators know
how important this money is to the education of gifted and
talented students in Illinois.
