Dear Saratoga Sea Turtle Families,
On behalf of the Saratoga Elementary School PTA, I would like to welcome you to the 2021-2022 school year. As we embark on a school year that still looks a bit different, we welcome the opportunity to continue to meet the SES community where they are. The Saratoga Sea Turtles were strong last year through a very different and ever changing time. We are excited to continue to further our mission to positively impact the lives of the children, teachers, staff and families of Saratoga Elementary School.
Please take a moment to look over just some of the ways the PTA supports our community and please consider joining us in our mission!
Classroom Funding - PTA supports classroom materials, supplies and teacher grants through PTA’s Just Do It membership drive. This year teachers will receive approximately $1875 for classroom supplies and materials.
Robotics Club - New in 2021-2022 for 4th-5th Grade Students!
Project Cornerstone - Social Emotional Learning brought to students through trained parent volunteers.
Running Club - Children come together with peers to foster a love of being outdoors while also being active.
Teacher and Staff Appreciation Lunches - Funded by PTA 3-4 times a year.
Enrichment Programs & Assemblies - Author’s Day visits, science assemblies, garden club, makerspace, etc.
Science Fair - Learning through curiosity, creativity and invention.
School & Community Events - from Family Picnic, Talent Show, International Night, School Musical - we look forward to holding and/or adapting as many programs as possible.
These are just some of the programs and events that are supported and/or funded through the PTA’s Just Do It membership drive. I’d like to invite each family to become a PTA member! With YOUR support we will achieve the greatest results!
Just Do It Membership Drive….here’s how you can make a difference!

On behalf of the PTA Board, I’d like to thank you in advance for your Just Do It contribution, as well as for becoming a PTA member and investing in Saratoga Elementary School. We look forward to an enriching year!
