Think joining the PTA means you’re signing up to volunteer ALL THE TIME? Think again!

Your PTA membership is yours to make what you want it to be.

🙋‍♀️ Love volunteering? Amazing! Jump in and get involved.

💙 Want to support the school and the PTA? That matters, too!

💡 Have ideas or want your voice heard? We want you at the table.

Being a PTA member doesn’t mean you have to do everything. It means you’re part of the community and supporting the work we do for our students and school.

There are lots of ways to PTA. ❤️

You won’t want to miss our first meeting of the school year! We’ll see you tomorrow at The PTA Clothing Bank or online. RSVP and Google Meet links are in the shared post.

Come learn how the clothing bank helps our kids AND how we can help the clothing bank!

**PTA UNITS — DON’T FORGET TO RSVP!**

Our first SCPTA meeting of the school year is NEXT WEEK!
We’d love to have at least one representative from every PTA unit join us.

And there are some great reasons to be there:

🏆 SCPTA Unit of Excellence Award
Sending a representative to this meeting is the FIRST STEP toward earning our NEW Unit of Excellence Award in May — with grant $$ for your school AND your PTA unit!

PTA Clothing Bank Volunteer Hours
Even better, attending this meeting also counts as your FIRST HOUR of volunteer time at our PTA Clothing Bank!

So mark your calendar, send a representative, and come kick off the new school year with us. We’re looking forward to a great year of working together and supporting our local PTA units!

RSVP link and virtual meeting link will be posted in the comments.

We hope to see you there!
