What is this playdate?
This 2025-26 school year, the Parkside PTA has allocated $1,200 for each cohort to use for a playdate. It can be any event that invites camaraderie within the entire cohort and meets the PTA's insurance policy. A parent volunteer must plan and organize the playdate and secure approvals for the date, expenses, and logistics from the PTA Board.
Who is our cohort lead?
Upper El cohort playdate leads are Erin Booth Armstrong and Brandy Mieszkowski.
