This page concerns the discussion groups powered by Google Groups (provided by the Sagamore Hills PTA Google account), and shouldn't be confused with the other Sagamore discussion lists privided by Parents.
Most email should be sent to an appropriate Sagamore group instead of specific people (or at least always CC a group too). Everyone decides how "plugged-in" to a group they want to be: completely ignore, browse past conversations on the web, subscribe to receive weekly or daily digests by email, or subscribe to receive every message. Anyone can email a (non-announcement) group, but messages from non-subscribers are moderated (I can moderate more heavily if need be).
See the Sagamore Hills Elementary Schoo PTA Google Groups for a list of current groups. The first group was created 2014-05-06 for the garden,
