Wade King PTA Meetings
PTA meetings are a fun, informal, and informative opportunity to connect to your child’s school, staff, other parents/guardians. Our meetings are a fun place, a chance to learn and be heard, and an opportunity to volunteer (though volunteering is completely optional). In our meetings, we discuss PTA budget distribution, PTA fundraisers, Wade King community and school events, new learning materials, and we brainstorm new ideas to foster community with our kids and families.
