New Business:

Amy O’Dell contacted Mindy about required fingerprinting for PTO volunteers and/or Officers. There is some uncertainty as to who is required to be fingerprinted- only officers or all volunteers. Mindy will clarify with Amy. Mindy has the forms necessary.

Mindy asked for ideas on how we could help the Teachers, and likewise the students, perhaps making a Teacher’s Wish List. Discussion was held on this topic.

The next meeting will be January 3^rd, 2007.
