The purpose of the SPG is to enrich the lives of Steller students through the financial support and leadership from all active parents and guardians. We strive to promote parent and guardian involvement in school activities. To this end we host events during the school year, raise funds to support school initiatives through Cups4Kids, and coordinate volunteers whenever they are needed.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All of this takes the hard work and dedication of our community members. We think parental participation is valuable and invite you to get involved and share your ideas. Each one of us has different skills, talents, and resources that are very much needed to make Steller what it is. For some it is volunteering to help a class, for others, it is heading up or joining a committee. Even simply attending our monthly meetings helps create community. We have tasks that need to be done during the day, in the evening, and many that don\u2019t even require coming to school. We all want the very best education and experience for our children, and when we work together we can make it happen.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/steller-parent-group-meetings\/\">Meeting Dates, Agenda and Minutes&nbsp;<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/etting-involvedvolunteer\/\">Volunteer opportunities <\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/facebook.us15.list-manage.com\/subscribe?u=e7333166d0ebbde5bd259a462&amp;id=d898ed9d23\"><strong>Subscribe to Flash<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/support-steller-2\/\"><strong>Support SPG and donate now.<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1>2024-2025 we are celebrating our 50th Anniversary.<\/h1>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/main\/50th-anniversary-celebrations\/\"><strong>To learn about our special events please see our website here:<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Please don\u2019t hesitate to reach out any time.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Warm regards,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dee Dee Zobian&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chair, Steller Parent Group<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">chairspg2@gmail.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are interested in learning more about SPG positions please let us know, and as always, we welcome your thoughts and ideas about how Steller Parent Group can serve you.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SPG wants to make sure that we are reaching as many members of our community with up to date and relevant information as possible.&nbsp; We have four ways we communicate with you:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellerschool712.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Website\/Steller Flash<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> updates appear on the SPG website or parents, students and staff can SUBSCRIBE to receive updates directly in your inbox.&nbsp; Please consult the SPG website for Meeting dates, agendas and minutes, Bylaws, and anything else pertaining to SPG.&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/stellerparentgroup\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Steller Secondary Parent Group<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a closed Facebook Group created to promote communication between current parents, teachers and staff for organizing school activities, announcements, questions, and keeping up with everything that is going on.
