We are actively seeking a PTA President for the 2026–2027 school year at Gaithersburg Middle School.
This role is essential to keeping many of the programs, events, and communication families rely on running.
Without a PTA President, we cannot fully support or sustain:
- Book Fairs
- Family and community events
- Student programs and enrichment opportunities
- Communication of important MCPS updates
- Partnerships with administration, MoCoCAP, and Community Schools
The PTA is the connection point between families, students, and the school. The President helps keep that connection strong and consistent.
What does the role involve? (High-level)
- Leading PTA meetings and setting priorities
- Partnering regularly with GMS administration
- Coordinating with board members and volunteers
- Supporting communication to families
- Helping ensure events and programs run smoothly
What it is NOT:
- You are not doing everything yourself
- You are not managing people like a full-time job
- You do not need prior PTA experience
Organization, communication, and a willingness to collaborate matter most.
Built-in support matters and you will have it.
Our current PTA President, Sumi Moses, will continue supporting GMS as the Gaithersburg Cluster Coordinator, and will remain a partner and resource to help guide the work, share context, and ensure continuity.
If you’ve ever appreciated an event, a resource, or a moment that made your student feel included or supported, this is how those things continue.
👉 If you are interested, or even just curious, please reach out - [email protected] or comment below. We are happy to talk through what this role actually looks like day-to-day.
Let’s make sure GMS continues to be a place where students and families feel connected, supported, and informed.
