From Molly Porter, PTA Volunteer Coordinator:
Looking for a MLK/National Day of Service project? For years I have organized a garden clean up/prep for spring work party at Chapman. I won’t be here this year to organize, but I’m happy to help you with the details if you’d like to make this event happen.

In an effort to better serve parents looking for after school options, this page now includes a spreadsheet that offers an easy way to compare opportunities by day/time and price.
If you represent a program that would like to be included in this list, please send an email with details to chapmanptacomm@gmail.com. There is no charge for listing.
Please note that most classes have minimum participation requirements and may be cancelled if sign ups are too low.

Planning to do a lot of online shopping this holiday season? Please remember these easy and effortless ways to benefit Chapman while moving through your gift giving list.
When you shop at smile.amazon.com, Amazon will donate a portion of the purchase price on eligible items to an organization of your choice. Once you’ve indicated the Chapman PTA in Portland, OR as your beneficiary, you might find it helpful to “bookmark” or “favorite” that site, as only purchases made through that portal are credited to our school.
Register your reward cards (like those at Fred Meyer and Safeway) or shop through the online mall to earn a percentage of purchases for Chapman. Indicate Chapman PTA in Portland, Oregon as your beneficiary.
Not a big shopper, but have holiday giving on your list? Please consider a tax-deductible donation to benefit Friends of Chapman. Tax ID # 93-1009176. DONATE ONLINE HERE.
December agenda, November notes and related materials for here.
We will be voting in a new Vice President, discussing possibility of an upcoming internet safety parent education night and hoping for information on MAPS testing and response to concern about math SBAC scores in general.
All PTA members are eligible to vote. CURRENTLY, WE HAVE 56 PARENT MEMBERS AND TWO TEACHER MEMBERS. That’s less than 10 percent of teachers and parents making decisions that affect our entire school community. Want broader representation? Join the PTA or forward this post to a fellow parent/teacher.
