Dear 75 Morton Families, 


We hope to see you at next week's PTA meeting! You will hear updates from Principal Cofie, Parent Coordinator, Hope Flamm and upcoming events. In order to accommodate families who are unable to meet in person, we are looking for someone who can stream and manage our in-person meetings on Zoom. If you are that person, we need you! Please email pta@75morton.org.


We had our first planning meeting for the 6th Grade Fright Night event. Permission slips and volunteer opportunities will be sent out shortly. 


In the meantime, if you can help us plan our first Ice Cream Social to be held in November, please email pta@75morton.org. 


With best regards, 

Corinne Moreno-Geis & Lili Feliciano
