Dear Miami Beach Senior High PTSA family,
It is an honor to greet you as the PTSA President as we close out the 100th anniversary of our extraordinary Miami Beach Senior High School! For one hundred years, our halls have echoed with the voices of students, parents, teachers and staff from all walks of life and corners of the world, each contributing unique histories and traditions that have enriched our students and community.
This centennial year has been filled with opportunities to honor our school’s vibrant heritage and bright future. Please join us during all the special events throughout this coming year! Come, share and create your own memories as we continue to recognize all who have shaped our school’s 100 years of excellence.
Our PTSA meetings are usually held every second Tuesday of the month, which you can join via Zoom! At our meetings you can expect to meet our school administration and PTSA leadership, view our budget and expenses for the year, and learn about our upcoming initiatives. I encourage you to stay informed, and PTSA is a great vehicle for information! You can also join one of the PTSA’s grade level WhatsApp chats if you haven’t already:
