In an effort to reduce paper and save trees, we’ve converted our monthly newsletter, Alamo Matters, all PTA, Foundation, school, and school district communications to electronic bi-monthly messages. This way, you’ll receive the most updated information on what’s happening at school. The Parent Google Group will still be available to exchange information.
Please register all the email addresses that wish to subscribe to this form of communication through this link, https://vr2.verticalresponse.com/s/alamomatters
Besides protecting our environment, we will also save money! Each sheet of paper you receive in the red envelope represents about (1) ream of paper (500 sheets)! Here are some statistics to consider:
