Message from PTA President
Dear Cornerstone Elementary Families,
I am thrilled to introduce myself as the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) President at CSE for the
academic year 2024-25. My name is Ashita S Khanna, and I am excited to partner with you, our
dedicated teachers and our wonderful school administration to make this school year
memorable and enriching for our children.
As a parent of two young kids in FBISD, I understand the importance of a strong and supportive
community. The PTA is dedicated to fostering an environment where every student can thrive
academically, socially, and emotionally. Our goal is to enhance the educational experience for all
students by supporting school programs, organizing events, and providing resources that
benefit our children and teachers.
This year, we have many exciting initiatives planned, including:
- Student Learning Enhancements: Supporting and fostering learning by purchasing
Bluebonnet books, Raz Kids and Reflex Math for all our classrooms. - Student-Based Fun Events: Field Day, Splash Day, Circus, Winter Fun Day, Birthday
Marquee request, etc. - Teacher-Centered Events: We support and pamper our wonderful teachers through
various events (Teacher Appreciation Week, monthly treats/ coffee/ meals, etc.) to show
how much we appreciate all they do. - Family Engagement Events: Opportunities for families to come together, learn, and have
fun (CCFFN, Moms and Muffins, Dudes and Donuts, etc.) - Fundraising Events: Activities designed to support school projects and enhance the
learning environment (Chameleon Pride Drive – which I highly encourage all parents to
participate in, Shared Dreams, etc.) - Volunteer Opportunities: Chances for you to get involved and make a difference in our
school community (we will reach out with a sign-up sheet before most events)
We cannot achieve these goals without your support. Your involvement is crucial, whether
volunteering, contributing ideas, or participating in our events. The PTA is a collaborative effort,
and we value your input and participation.
To stay informed about upcoming events and opportunities, please follow our PTA newsletters,
attend monthly meetings, and visit the PTA website. We also encourage you to join our PTA if
you haven’t already. Membership offers a great way to connect with other parents and stay
engaged in your child’s education. Please look out for CPD/membership forms in your child’s
Tuesday folders.
Thank you for entrusting us with this responsibility. Together, we can create a vibrant,
supportive community that nurtures our children’s growth and success. I look forward to
meeting and working with each of you throughout the school year.
