Our very own Amelia Munoz, in Ms. Stohs’ class, wrote a beautiful poem about Perseverance during their poetry unit that was selected from more than 550 poems for the Washington Post’s "Poetry of the Pandemic" contest. You can find her piece here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/kidspost/2021/04/27/kidspost-selects-10-poems-poetry-pandemic-contest/?itid=sf_lifestyle-kidspost
Congratulations, Amelia, and to all of those in Ms. Stohs’ class who submitted poetry!
This week is Teacher Appreciation Week! Let’s show our teachers and staff how much we love them with fun activities sponsored by the PTA!
Monday, May 3 is our Teacher Appreciation kick-off event. Please come to Louise Archer from 6:30-7:30 to chalk the school with messages of appreciation (weather dependent). Or chalk your walk and share pictures on the PTA Facebook page. PTA representatives will be at the school during this time as well and can collect notes/cards, school supplies, and gift cards during this time as well for the activities for the remainder of the week.
Start having your kids make cards for their favorite teachers and staff members. Here’s the list of the fun activities going on all week to appreciate our teachers and what your student needs to bring!!!
If you have any questions, please contact April Buckley.

Hello Louise Archer Families! I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Regan Morgan and I am excited to serve as your PTA president for the remainder of this year and next year. My daughter is in Ms. Toth’s 5th grade class, and we have loved being a part of the Louise Archer community ever since she joined the school in 3rd grade.
We have the most incredible and active PTA that runs programs that benefit all of the Louise Archer students. Have you ever run the 5K or watched your child dance at the Sock Hop? Has your child ever gotten a book at the Book Fair or yelled BINGO during Pizza Bingo? Have they ever loved having friends sign their yearbook? These are just some of the fantastic programs that are put on by the PTA, and we need your help to keep them going next year. Please take a look at the below open committee positions and email us to volunteer or to learn more.
Thanks so much!
Regan
