General Meeting Dates & Minutes

General Meeting Minutes & Dates

The Friends of Thurgood Marshall Elementary (FTME) General Meetings take place 4 times per year 6:30-8:00 p.m. Tuesdays. Normally they are held in the Library (unless otherwise announced) but due to COVID they are currently held online.  Meetings are open to all parents/guardians of current students, as well as involved members of the community. Principal May and FTME Board members give updates on curriculum, staffing, budget, teacher grant requests and other relevant topics. Suggestions and guest speakers are welcomed and encouraged!

Care for school-aged children may be available; RSVP is usually required. Please check Pup Press or calendar at least a week before the meeting.
