NEXT PTA MEMBER MEETING WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 12th

WHY DO SCHOOLS NEED PARENT AND COMMUNITY SUPPORT? A Message from the Florida PTA:

 

Thirty years of research clearly shows that parent & community involvement in schools improves student achievement.  To reach their potential, students need parents and the community to take an active role in their education. Schools are working hard to provide high quality education for every child.  However, they can’t do it alone.  Parent and community involvement are critical to creating a great school. PTA encourages all parents and caregivers to become actively involved in their school.

DID YOU KNOW?

In addition to helping your child, your involvement as a PTA member can have direct benefits for you - discounts, information, resources & more.

You can make a difference and raise funds for our children with very simple effort and a few minutes.

Want to teach your children how to be of service, help others & stay humble? The PTA is doing more than ever to help people here in our local community.

Come to the meetings or see a board member for more details!
