Blake’10 After Prom
“Into the Night”

Hello Blake families,

With about 35 days to go until the 2010 After-Prom, we have just passed the 66% point of our Fundraising goal for Parent Donations. To the 81 families that have donated to the After-Prom, THANK YOU!!! To the other 900+ families at Blake, WE NEED YOUR HELP! Regardless of the grade your child is in, we count on your support. Our initial deadline is/was Friday, April 9.

Any contribution, large or small, is appreciated! Your donation will help insure a safe, alcohol and drug free evening for our Juniors, Seniors and their Prom dates! Read more »

If you’re wondering what to do with all the books, movies, and music you had to clear out to make room for your guests and new stuff, we have a perfect solution! Stash all those things away for the 3rd annual Blake High School Used Book and Media Sale. After the first of the year, we’ll be collecting your donations for this worthy PTSA event, which raises money for scholarships for our students. The sale will take place on February 19-21. Please contact Orit Lowy Chicherio if you have questions or donations (oritilATyahooDOTcom).

A group of Blake parents and a teacher representative met on Dec. 1st to discuss the formation of a Blake Education Foundation. The foundation would be established to provide a means of financial support for projects that would enhance the educational environment for Blake students, and staff. It would also support projects that are beyond the scope of PTSA projects and fundraising. Several high schools in Montgomery County have started Education Foundations, the oldest of which is Bethesda Chevy Chase High School.

The group discussed several examples of the type of projects that could be funded, including a mobile foreign language lab; scholarships; academic support programs; a technology fund; and teacher programs.

Watch this space for announcements of future meetings. If you’re interested in participating in the Foundation, or have ideas for fundraising or projects to fund, please contact Robina Barlow at: president@blakeptsa.org.
