Are your PTA emails going into junk/spam folders?
Despite our best efforts, many PTA emails end up in your junk/spam or promotion folders. This happens because Google, Yahoo and other email providers automatically tag the emails their servers receive from companies such as Mailchimp. The PTA uses Mailchimp to manage our lists and to create and send emails to our community.
We recommend the following steps to ensure that PTA emails reach your Primary email inboxes.
1. Please add the following email addresses to your Contacts in whatever email provider you use.
2. Please REDIRECT our emails into your primary inbox by following the instructions below for the most frequently used providers.
GOOGLE
Read Mailchimp's info on how to get their emails into Gmail's primary Inbox.
Always show an email in your inbox
If an email doesn't belong in a label, remove your email from the label so that it shows up in your inbox.
If you don't see the email in your inbox, it might be in one or more labels, such as Low Priority or any custom labels. Once you find your email, select Move to Choose Remove from. You may have to repeat these steps.

Every parent or guardian of a NEST+m student as well as every teacher at NEST+m is automatically a member of the NEST+m PTA. We are one PTA for the entire school (K–12). Our goal is to create and maintain a welcoming and supportive community for all NEST+m families and faculty and to support the administration and faculty in their efforts to provide outstanding curricular and enrichment programs to all NEST+m students.
The school day is 8:30am - 2:50pm.
Each and every one of us can make a difference. Our collective participation enables the dynamic NEST+m community to continue to thrive. Every dollar we donate goes toward enriching our children’s education, and every hour we volunteer our time or services at an event, in the PTA office, or behind the scenes, ensures that our kids experience the excellent programs, resources, and enrichment for which NEST+m is recognized. Donations to the General Fund campaign continue to be the best way to directly benefit students at NEST+m.
Thank you for your support,
The NEST+m PTA
