Our Projects and Progress
We're excited to share the amazing strides our PTA has already made in supporting our school community! Even as a new organization, we're building momentum and seeing real progress toward our goals.
So far, we've set up a temporary drop-off box at the front of the school for uniform and teacher donations, and a permanent donation box is currently being built for future placement. Thanks to the generosity of our community, we've already collected numerous uniforms for students in need!
We're also actively showing our appreciation for our dedicated teachers. We've planned a breakfast for their first day back, and we're organizing lunch for them during that entire week.
Looking ahead, we're thrilled to announce plans for a "Living Thank You Garden," with a potential mural to enhance its beauty. We've even secured plant donations sponsored for the spring, ensuring this project will blossom.
Finally, a massive thank you to Marble Slab Creamery for their incredible sponsorship of a sundae bar for the winning grade of our membership drive! Their support helped make our drive a sweet success.
This is just the beginning, and we're so grateful for the enthusiasm and support that's helping us make a real difference for our students and teachers.
Our Vision
Empowering Our Dedicated Teachers
Our teachers are the heart of our school, consistently going above and beyond for our children. Many generously use their own funds to provide essential resources and enrich the learning environment. We believe they deserve our full support. With your help, we aim to:
-
Provide teacher appreciation meals during demanding periods like testing weeks.
-
Fund "outside-the-box" learning experiences that are hands-on and engaging, moving beyond traditional textbooks.
-
Supply essential resources for various departments, including:
-
Science: Supporting labs, robotics, and other STEM initiatives.
-
Arts: Supplying microphones for theater and chorus, instrument supplies and sheet music for band, and general art class materials.
-
-
Offer "mini-grants" to five deserving teachers annually, allowing them to fulfill a classroom "bucket list" item as a reward for their hard work.
Enriching the Student Experience
Our students are at the core of everything we do. We're committed to creating an inclusive and exciting learning environment where all students can thrive. Our initiatives include:
-
Financial assistance for families in need: Providing funds for field trips and school uniforms through a dedicated uniform closet and a food pantry.
-
Creating engaging activities: Funding projects like a school garden and an environmental club to put science and sustainability into action.
-
Regular student recognition: Celebrating the hard work and achievements of all our students.
-
By the 2026-2027 school year, we aspire to have the resources to fully implement these vital programs.

Fostering a Stronger "GREEN" Family Community
We believe that a strong school community is built on connection and collaboration. We plan to host regular events that bring families together, such as:Social gatherings: Potluck nights, game nights, trivia nights, dances, and festivals.Accessible PTA meetings: Coordinating meetings with student pick-up times or offering evening meetings with provided dinner (like pizza) to ensure parents don't have to choose between family dinner and PTA involvement.With your sponsorship and support, we can transform these aspirations into reality, making a tangible difference in the lives of our students and teachers. We invite you to join us in building a vibrant and thriving school community.
