Subject: Gardening committee for Ridgetop

Hello, Ms. Ayala, I had spoken with Mr. Gloria recently about your Gardening Committee for Ridgetop. I wondered if you had a next meeting date that I might attend?  I live in the neighborhood and think the idea of working on gardening projects for the school is a great idea.  What projects do you have in mind and how many are on your committee?  I can't remember if Mr. Gloria said you were the chair of the committee, or a parent, or a teacher, so if it isn't too much trouble, perhaps you could fill me in on how the group came to be? Best wishes, Ellen Williams
