The Fairview PTA members had a
lovely idea. Why not enlist the help of parents and students to bring some Valentine
love to people at local nursing homes? Setting up the meeting time for 7:00 to 8:00
p.m. on Tuesday evening, The PTA parent in charge of the project, Roslyn Flemings, was
pleased with the participation. When we can bring parents and children together for
such a worthwhile activity we are accomplishing much. The turn out was great and everyone
seemed to appreciate the opportunity to help. The goal was to involve students and parents
in giving to others bringing sunshine into the lives of some of our local nursing
home residents, and what elementary student doesnt love to make Valentine
hearts? Roslyn left the gathering with a bucket load of delightful homemade
Valentines and tray decorations for some lucky nursing home residents. Shown here are
students Yesenia Garcia, Monica Sanchez, Jasmine Sanchez, and mother Elvira cutting,
pasting, and gluing Valentine cards.
