PTA is looking for volunteers!
The PTA has planned many initiatives throughout the school year, and we can’t do our work without our wonderful volunteers. We are especially looking for volunteers to fill the following roles:

Works with vendors and teachers to schedule after school enrichment classes (martial arts, baking, chess, etc.) and coordinates enrollment.
If you have any questions or would like to volunteer, email our PTA president, Brett Goldstein, at
Join the PTA today!
Membership is offered at a cost of $10 per person. No one turned away due to lack of funds! Sponsored (free!) memberships are available online and on the paper form, too.
