Parents Taking ACTION (PTA)
Any parent who has a child enrolled for the 2011-2012 school year is automatically a member of the PTA. The PTA is vital to the success of St. Patrick and we encourage interested and qualified members of the PTA to become part of the Board.
Please consider joining the Board.
Who We Are
The Parents Taking Action Board serves as a liaison between the school, the faculty, and the parents. It is a harmonious and welcoming partnership that actively addresses any issues concerning the students. The PTA Board communicates with the faculty and parents. The PTA Board works together with the faculty and parents to provide a fun place for students. In addition, they help with fund-raisers to support the school financially and to improve the school in any way that will benefit the students.
What We Do
We discuss current events at the school.
We address any faculty concerns, including issues or suggestions.
We present any issues or suggestions raised by parents at the weekly staff meeting.
We hold fund-raisers to support the school’s needs and to provide fun events for our students, parents, school staff and community.
We prepare the agenda for the parent meetings and ensure that parents receive updates on all current topics/issues.
Each Board member will lead one of the PTA sponsored events.
How long do I serve?
PTA Board members serve for one school year, from August to June.
