Most people think that supporting the PTA means you are chairing an event. NOT TRUE! Membership contributes financially to the PTA. Supporting and volunteering can be as simple as helping to set up an event or social networking to friends/family to help advertise events that are open to our school and the public.
If each family contributed with their $15 Individual Membership / $25 Family Membership, we would raise $12,000 in one year! (minus NY States fees that are non-negotiable) That's with NO FUNDRAISING!!
How we raise funds:
Holiday & Spring Shopping
School Supply Boxes
Restaurant Fundraisers
Scholastic Book Fair
School Photos
Box Tops
Spirit Wear
and more . . .
