You're invited! The PTA is looking forward to our next meeting, March 10 at 7p where we will be showing the film, "Angst," and have a panel moderated discussion after.Angst was made by one of the filmmaker who made Screenagers, Karin Gornick. After making Screenages, Karin had her son take a break from screens and realized that his screen use was managing and masking his social anxiety. This led to her making Angst, a film about Anxiety, to dispel the stigma, offer hope and strategies to manage anxiety.This is a link to the trailer angstmovie.comCheck out the trailer and come join us for the film and discussion.The film is not available on Netflix or other streaming services as the film makers recognize the importance to see the film in a context connected to support and communityPopcorn supplied by Difference Makers! ...

Hey All,We have some cool long sleeve t-shirts in the works that are coming your way (in time for Christmas if you are looking for an extra gift). We'll have Women's as well as Men's/unisex sizes available. T-shirts will be black with TKPKMS blue graphic in starry letters on the front along with our motto Ad Astra (to the stars). They will also have "Takoma" printed on one sleeve. I canvasses lots of kids today, and they seemed pretty excited. I am too because not only will the t-shirts look great, they will help us fund so many of the cool and important things we do as a PTA (longer list is in the Thank You section on the form).If you would like to pre order, fill out and submit a google form. I will email let everyone know when the shorts are in and will plan to be on campus to distribute before and after school (probably mid/late next week). Here's the form (let me know if there is a problem -- I am new to creating forms)! forms.gle/ZkCKYsJXP8JBg3fg8THANKS!Gretchen'19-'20 PTA Pres and mom to Grace 8thP.S. If you're not into t-shirts but want to support the PTA, we are in the midst of our Takoma Thrives fundraising drive.

Meet Ms. De La Rosa, our new secretary!Hi! My name is Arlin De La Rosa.I am a Maryland alumni graduating with a degree in History. I was previously a Director with a Before and After School Care program named KidsCo Inc for about 8 years and most recently worked for about 2 years as an Academic Advisor in the Embassy of the State of Kuwait. I am a very energetic, artistic, and athletic person who loves to stay active playing sports and taking hike with my dog, a 3 year old German Shepard named Rocky. I am a very big fan of the Capitals, Nationals, and Redskins (I know, I know… I just can’t help who I love). I am very excited to be a part of the Takoma Park team!Please feel free to stop by the main office and say hello anytime you wish, I will be here willing and able to assist you in any way I can. ...

Takoma Park Middle School Food Pantry

The Difference Makers Takoma Park Middle School Food Pantry is now working with the Takoma Park Middle School PTA, Takoma Park Elementary School PTA and Piney Branch Elementary School PTA as one site in collaboration for monetary donations for local families in need and to find information about how to receive food assistance during the coronavirus school shut down.

As a safety precaution and until we get past this current health crisis, we will no longer be accepting food donations but will start giving Giant gift card donations this Sunday and continue on a weekly basis. We will gratefully receive monetary donations through https://tpespta.net/donate-now/ or you can purchase Giant Gift cards online and email them to takomafood@gmail.com. Families will then be able to more safely shop for themselves. We recently distributed cards to over 250 families!

If you are a family in need of assistance with food, please email takomafood@gmail.com

If you are in a position to donate, please do so generously as we work to keep our community safe and keep food in the homes of our families in need.

Thank you so much for supporting this important community initiative.
