First, let’s get the PTA thing straight.

PTA stands for Parent Teacher Association, but it is so much more than that. Parents, grandparents, educators, legislators, neighbors and community leaders are all essential members of the PTA family and provide a powerful and effective voice for all children.

When schools and families work together to support learning, everyone benefits: students do better in school and in life; parents become empowered; teacher morale improves; schools get better; and, communities grow stronger.

Our mission

To make every child’s potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children.”

How We Support

  • Events – Create opportunities for parents, students, and staff to engage on and off campus
  • Connect – Organize school-wide activities for involvement across arts, culture, sports, and more
  • Fundraise – Raise money to funnel back into the campus, our staff, and our students
  • So. Much. More!
