The Waite Park PTA would like to thank the Northeast community for all the time, money and products you donated this year to Waite Park Community School. We had a year filled with wonderful events and successful fundraisers, and the community’s involvement was incredibly appreciated. We are fortunate to live in a place that cares for our children and our schools. Numerous businesses and churches have contributed both financially, and with volunteer time (far too many to name here but listed at http://waiteparkpta.blogspot.com); this support has provided our students and families with many enrichment and community-building opportunities.

In addition to the strong support by local businesses, we owe a big thank you to our school neighbors in NE; Northeast Middle School and Edison High School provided stellar students to support our events. For example, the Edison Football team came to our Family Reading Night. Northeast Middle School provided volunteers at our track and field day at the Dome – not a small event! The Edison sport teams and Northeast Middle School hosted several games at our carnival. These volunteers were essential to running our events and also provided wonderful role models to our younger children.

Thank you to the Northeast Community and we look forward to another fantastic year next fall!
