We are the THE PTA Board

Our Mission is to create a PTA culture that is inclusive, organized, service-oriented, and fun.

We are here to support our students, their parents and caregivers, as well as our teachers and school staff. From student scholarships and sponsoring needs in various classrooms to organizing family-friendly events and teacher appreciation week, we are here to do our best at filling in gaps, supporting, and facilitating where we can. We are most empowered to do these things when our members volunteer and/or allow their voices to be heard. Let us know how we can help!

We are here for connection, inclusive community, to support, engage, and facilitate the delivery of resources to students and school staff in and outside of the classroom.
