SWCS Council of PTAs

SWCS Council of PTAs The South-Western City Schools Council of PTAs has 32 very active PTA and PTSA units.

The Mission of PTA is three-fold:
*To initiate action and speak on behalf of children and youth in the schools, in the community and before governmental agencies and other organizations that make decisions affecting children and youth;
*To promote the use of PTA programs and projects to assist parents in developing the skills they need to raise and protect children and youth; and
*To increase parent, family and community involvement in the public schools of Ohio.

This week, as the PTA celebrates Staff Appreciation Week across the district we could not forget about the District Service Center! Not only did we show appreciation with a snack display, but thanks to our youngest learners we were also able to make our 'thank you' a bit more creative!

The vibrant display below was created by our Harmon Elementary School Preschoolers, who quite literally put learning into motion! As part of their exploration of movement, students shook marbles fast and slow to see what would happen....resulting in the shamrock designs you see here. They also worked together to create a stunning 360° rainbow that brought the whole display to life.

It’s a colorful reminder that learning is happening at every level—and that there are many hands, both big and small, supporting our schools behind the scenes at the DSC. Thank you staff and everyone at the DSC who helps keep our district moving forward! We would also like to thank our many volunteers across the district for helping to recognize schools and departments.

Last night, we were thrilled to celebrate our Student Impact, Helping Hands, and T in PTA winners!

We are so thrilled to announce the grand re-opening of the SWCS PTA Clothing Room!

Located in the Westland High School Rec Center, this resource provides new and gently worn clothing to families of SWCS students. This is made possible by community donations and the support of our 32 active PTA units.

We thank the district and our Communities In Schools partners, along with outfitters and organizers IKEA and Joyful Sort for making this re-vamping of the space into a true 'shopping' experience for families.

The ongoing management of this space is in thanks to our fabulous Clothing Room Co-Chairs, Joy Metzger and Kyra Paul, who have worked tirelessly and with their whole hearts to serve the families in our district with this much-needed resource.

We are so grateful for all of you!
