Past Meetings and Photo
While following COVID-19 safety protocol, the Zeta Chapter met at the West Hills Baptist Church gardens on August 24, 2020, for the year's first meeting. Pictured here are Paula Fox, Corresponding Secretary; Terry Sharp, President; Tami Smith, 2nd Vice President; and Saralee Peccolo-Taylor, 1st Vice President.
To support members who are active teachers, Zeta chapter created their “Spotlight on an Educator” program. The chapter selects a member each semester and provides that member with materials to enhance her classroom experience. When a member’s name is drawn, she is asked to supply a “wish list” of materials she can use in her classroom. Members then contribute materials throughout the semester to make those wishes come true. Julie Golden was Zeta’s first term Spotlight recipient. Her wish was to purchase books for a bilingual classroom library. Zeta chapter was able to supply enough money to allow Golden to make the library a reality. The second term recipient was Tami Smith who requested Power Basic American Government textbooks for her CDC classroom. At Zeta chapter Spotlight recipients Tami Smith and Julie Golden the chapter’s February meeting, $177 was collected for Smith’s textbook purchase. Collections will continue through May.
