What does the PTA do?

The PTA is a membership organization. We encourage all parents and teachers to join. We sponsor fundraising events such as Read-a-thon and Fall Festival. We host teacher appreciation luncheons and provide funding for teacher resources in the classroom. The PTA has funded building benches, shade structures, fences, and gardens at our school. We fund the end of the year reading celebration and the Mile Maker and Field day.  We coordinate vision and hearing screenings for students and hold parent and volunteer social events.
