Steller Parent Group Meeting Tuesday, May 10
The Steller Community consists of three pillars: Students, Staff and Parents/Guardians. Steller Parent Group is an important way for parents and guardians to learn about what is happening at school, have a voice in future decisions, and help create a culture that reflects the communities values.
All students, staff, and parents/guardians are automatically members, and anyone who attends a meeting has the right to vote on issues. If you have ideas for how we can continue to grow our community, we would love to hear from you.
Our next meeting is Tuesday, May 10, from 6:00 to 7:00pm on Zoom.
In addition to the usual updates, we will continue planning our upcoming All Community Meeting: Celebrate Steller! It will be a fun event for our entire Steller community.

Cups for Kids Fundraising Campaign
Dear Steller Community,
Tomorrow is the first day of the Steller Cups for Kids Fundraising Campaign!
Students will be handing out coffee/cocoa before and after school all week, sharing their stories of how Steller Parent Group funds have affected their experiences at Steller, and collecting donations.
You can make a donation in person or from the comfort of your own home.
To make sure traffic flow is smooth and safe parents are welcome to:
1.Park in the main parking lot or along the road, and join us for a little visit in front of the school.
2. If you prefer we can bring a coffee/cocoa right to your car in the drop off/pick up line.
During these three days please make sure you are extra careful as you drive through the drop off/pick up line and help keep our students safe.
The Fundraising Campaign will be happy to collect donations until December 15!

Write-a-Check Fundraiser “Steller Cups for Kids”
Steller Parent Group and the Steller Student Outreach Group are planning our first “Write-a-Check” Fundraising Campaign from November 22 to December 14.
Your support is critical. As you may know, SPG has not been able to do any fundraising since January of 2020 due to COVID. We hope to take the pressure off of parents and students to organize, buy and sell things or attend events, and simply to ask you to donate what you can. ($25 to $50 per family is suggested and would help us meet our goal of $6000).
———- Three Easy Ways to Donate ————-
-
Write a Check to “Steller Parent Group” and drop off between the 22 and 24, or leave in the SPG mailbox before December 14.
-

-
