PTA Updates
PTA All Pro Dad Meeting

Hey Dads and Kids...Summer is almost here - time to celebrate!  Take this opportunity to join us on Wednesday, May 9th for Lutz Prep/Lutz Pre-Prep All Pro Dad - Dads' and Kids' Breakfast.  (Last one this year!) Team up with other Lutz Prep Dads and Kids for a quick before-school breakfast.  Doors open at 7:00 AM.  The program starts at 7:15 and ends at 7:45 AM. It’s fun and it’s free. Reminder to bring your license the front office to sign in as a campus visitor.

This month's topic is "Technology".  Big Idea: Technology comes from our need to solve problems.  When we use technology properly, it can bring about positive change and can help us learn and grow.  Technology, when used in moderation and with self-control, can also be used to positively impact the world around us and make people’s lives better.  You and your kids will be glad you came!  Great way to start the morning.  Contact Ryan Martin with any questions.
