Happy New Year and welcome back!  We hope you all had a wonderful and relaxing winter break.  On December 17, 2020 the PTO Teachers’ Appreciation team delivered hot lunches and Christmas gifts to school for the entire staff of 87.  They were given choices between American burgers, Italian lasagnas, Mexican torta and tinga, as well as Chinese chicken salad or Lebanese chicken fattoush for lunch.  Each also received an apron for a Christmas gift. Thank you Trina and  Ziba!

 

 

The next PTO Meeting is this Tuesday, January 12, 2021 at 6:30 PM via Zoom.  Please plan to attend.

BENEFACTOR WALL UPDATE

Dear Parents,

We’ve made it through 2020!  Thank you so much for all of your support to the school and the PTO.  Let’s start 2021 with exciting news.  First, the school will soon have its first Benefactor Wall by the end of January or early February.  If you would like to give your family or child a gift of a lifetime while helping the students at DeBakey HSHP have an enriched learning experience, you can purchase a name plaque on the Benefactor Wall.  Click onto this link to make your contribution:

The  Senior Class will find out their college acceptances and decide where they will spend the next four years of their life.  They have worked very hard throughout the last four years, especially this last year of not seeing each other, for this moment.  They deserve a heart-warming celebration for their accomplishments.  We are selling aprons to raise funds for the Senior Class year-end event.  Please support the Senior Class with your purchase of the apron, which is $15 each.  To purchase, please email fundraising@debakeypto.org your name and the quantity that you would like.  We thank you for your continuous support and wish that your families are always in good health.
