President's Message
Welcome to the 2012/2013 school year.
 
Our theme for this year is “Soaring Together”.  Our mascot is the Eagle as you will see around the campus.   We are so excited to have new families coming in from Aliso Elementary as well as families just starting out their academic lives at Santiago, and we want everyone to know that it takes all of us together to make this a great school and to help our kids soar in everything they do. 

The PTA provides exciting Family Fun Nights, Art Programs as well as supplementing the Computer Aide, Nurse Aide and Library Clerk.  We also support the Nutcracker production that happens in the early winter months for 4-6th grades.  During our monthly PTA meetings, we will discuss where funds would be best spent along with any questions and/or discussions about upcoming events. Most of our meetings are on the second Tuesday of every month.   I will do my absolute best and try to make everyone feel welcome and a part of our wonderful school, because we can only make this a successful year if we do it together.
 
I am always open to suggestion, comments and questions, so please feel free to email me at reneederek@gmail.com.  I look forward to seeing you all at the meetings and around campus. 
 
 
Sincerely,

Renee Derakhshanian,
PTA President
