This year, the George A. Jackson Elementary School PTA has established a Multicultural Committee. The mission of this newly formed group is to reach out to all families from the community and make them feel more comfortable about getting involved in school activities. The committee was established under the leadership of PTA co-presidents Ruth Damon and Randi Dukoff. "We realized that although our community was becoming more diverse, it wasn't reflected at our PTA meetings and school events," said Damon and Dukoff.
