Thank you for supporting PTA! We are Better Together!
This year, PTA is working hard to focus our efforts on programs and activities that will make a positive difference for the kids in our school and enhance their educational experience. OUR GOAL IS TO RAISE $65,000 to help us do this and our ask is $250 per family. We are currently 85% to our goal. We can make it with your help! Your financial support, at whatever level your family can give, helps ensure we have the funds required to continue to support Classrooms and Teachers, Community Building Events, Art and Special Programs, and Advocacy efforts across our district and throughout the state. Thank you to everyone who has already supported PTA!
