## From the President . . .

Shannon Croft (214)731-9274
Changes are afoot in the PTA! The nominating committee has been hard at work since January finding some great volunteers to serve as officers of the CECPTA for the next school year. The slate of seven officers will be elected at our meeting on March 12th. After the election, those officers will meet to finalize all the committee chairmen and special interest group leaders. It's not too late to express an interest in a position! I know it can be daunting to think of taking on a position, especially if it's something you have never done, but no one has to do a job alone! There is plenty of help and support available here in our PTA and also from the C-FB Council. All of the new officers and chairmen will assume their responsibilities at the officer installation brunch in May. I would like to thank the nominating committee - Cathy Dreyer, Amy Turner, Elizabeth Howell, Kerri Lindsey and Lora Domingue for all their hard work finding candidates for the election. Great Job!
