Dear Mariner Families,

Welcome back to our returning Mariners, and a special welcome to all of our new families! We are so excited to begin another incredible school year and look forward to all that 2026-2027 has in store.

The PTO's mission is to support our students, families, teachers, and staff while helping create meaningful experiences that make Amy Parks Heath Elementary such a special place. Whether you are a returning PTO member or joining us for the first time, thank you for your commitment to our school community. Your involvement and generosity make a lasting difference in the lives of our Mariners.

Working alongside our outstanding administration, teachers, and staff, we are excited to continue APHE's long tradition of excellence. Throughout the year, the PTO funds programs, campus improvements, teacher appreciation initiatives, and student experiences that enrich every child's time at APHE.

I'm especially excited that two of our favorite APHE traditions are back this year! Mark your calendars for our Fall Carnival and Dad's Softball Game on Friday, October 2, and our Spring Social, Parents Pickleball Tournament, and Silent Auction in April. These events are wonderful opportunities to connect with other families, celebrate our school community, and raise the funds that directly benefit our students and campus. We hope you'll join us and help make these events a success!

There are so many ways to get involved, whether you can volunteer at an event, serve on a committee, sponsor a program, or simply attend and cheer on our students. Every contribution - big or small - helps strengthen our school community. Be sure to read the Mariner Memo, check our website, and follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay in the know!

Thank you for being an important part of the APHE family. I look forward to meeting many of you throughout the year and working together to make this an amazing year for our Mariners.

Here's to a fantastic 2026-2027 school year!

Kindly,

Samantha Cullins
