Get Involved

Involvement with the PTA starts with Membership. If that is all your family can manage this year, we welcome the support! Next, if you want to dig in a little deeper, then volunteer! You can volunteer once, several times, or on a regular basis. Finally, you can chair an event or a series of events, which means you plan, develop, and execute an activity with a team of volunteers.
