Wednesday, November 19th

There is so much going on at Trillium right now
I thought everyone could use a quick reminder.

So...parent conferences and minimum days are continuing through Thursday.
If you did not get a chance to meet this week with your child's teacher
don't hesitate to schedule a meeting after Thanksgiving Break.
The teachers are available.

Congratulations to our new Steering Committee members
and thanks to everyone who voted in this years election.

The new committe has five parent representatives:

Jill Frizzell
Rachel Iverson
Ciara Hunt
Suzanne Swagert
Stephanie Silvia

and one community member:

Lynn Szabo (an alumni Trillium parent).

These are the voting members of the committee.
We will have our first meeting and orientation this Thursday at 6:00.
All parents are welcome to attend.

Friday is an exciting day.
We have a Center Arts fieldtrip in the morning,
and our annual Harvest Potluck in the afternoon.

Please return signed permission slips for the fieldtrip.

All families are invited to join us for the potluck from 1:00-3:00.
This is always a great way to end before we disperse for Thanksgiving Break.
We hope you can make it.

The fundraising committe is currently accepting coffee orders.
This fundraiser is through Humboldt Bay Coffee Co.
and the bags come with our own Trillium label.

They make excellent holiday gifts,
or if you buy coffee anyway, you can buy it here
and some of the money will benefit the school.

The coffee will be ordered the week after break.

I also wanted to thank our parents who have been working
so hard on their contributions to Trillium.

Our fundraising committee has been resurrected and is working hard.
The Steering Committee has all seats filled with voting members,
our grounds are looking good thanks to volunteers,
and the overall sense of community is growing.

Thank you all, because we can't do it without you.
