Leave a comment

The 2021-2022 Scholarship form is online this year: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeciOB3_DIyrzBu1BceU1rY9UvLtE6vCSQx6gwfxr9QuQYliQ/viewform

DEADLINE TO ENTER IS THIS FRIDAY, MARCH 18TH!

Each spring the East Cobb County Council (ECCC) of PTAs awards one $1,000 scholarship to a graduating senior from each of the six ECCC high schools. The scholarship, known as the ECCC PTA Margie Hatfield Scholarship, honors the dedication and years of service given by Mrs. Hatfield to the youth of our council. In recognition of her volunteer involvement, the ECCC PTA Margie Hatfield Scholarship Fund awards deserving seniors who have made significant contributions to the community. This is NOT a grade based scholarship but a service oriented scholarship. Any graduating senior enrolling in a full-time course of study at any institute of higher learning may apply. Students, however, must be a member of your school’s PTSA and if awarded a scholarship, must use the funds for continuing education at a trade school, two or four year university/college. Below is the link, criteria and timeline. https://forms.gle/EfwiX9SNzxknnAMS6

Sprayberry High School PTSA

Google Workspace is available for free for nonprofits. Search Google for Nonprofits and look into getting this setup for your local unit PTA. Many local units and the ECCC PTA Council have been getting started using this over the past couple years. Here are the slides from the Using Google Workspace introductory training given in the August 2021 ECCC PTA Priority Fair.

ECCC PTA would like to invite you to have a discussion with Commission Jerica Richardson, District 2, about her priorities and how they relate to public education in our area this Thursday, April 15 at 7:00 p.m. via Zoom (please see flyer below). These priorities include, but are not limited to, libraries, after school activities, parks and recreations, and the proposed City of East Cobb. If you have any questions you would like to submit to Commissioner Richardson in advance, please email them to president@ecccpta.org. Please also share the flyer below on your social media.

This discussion is open to any stakeholder who wants to listen and participate. We look forward to welcoming you all to join us in this opportunity to listen and pose questions to one of our elected officials on priorities that are important to PTA, public education, our community and our schools. Thank you all for everything you do for our students and our schools. – Tammy, ECCC PTA President
