A team of CLES families and school staff working together to provide resources and programs to all in our community.
We encourage every CLES family to become a PTA member. We want a diverse membership base that reflects all of our families and meets the needs of all of our students.
When you join, you will be the first to receive our latest news and updates about events that impact your child in our school and community. If you have extra time and energy to volunteer, please let us know. If not, please let us know how we can help you and your children thrive. Either way, you are helping us advocate for your family.
Your membership dues and participation help the PTA create enrichment programs and fun events for our children, to support our wonderful teachers and staff, and to connect our school community.
Just like a video game, the CLES PTA has multiple levels of involvement.
Choose the Right Fit for YOU and Your Family This Year:
LEVEL 1: Join the PTA as a member - Simply signing up with a $10 membership is a great way to support the PTA and have a voice. No meetings required!
LEVEL 2: Get Involved - Attend meetings when you can, share ideas, and sign up for an occasional short-term volunteer opportunity.
LEVEL 3: Join a Committee - Serve in a specific role on a committee. Many roles are active only during certain times of the year.
LEVEL 4: Take a Leadership Role -- Lead or co-lead a committee. Serve as a co-chair for an event. Serve as the representative for CLES at the monthly PTA Council of Howard County (PTACHC) meetings.
