PTA Membership is easy and low cost. For just $__ you can show your support for our school.
PTA is a grassroots organization made up of parents, teachers, and others around the state that have an interest in children, families, and schools. PTA membership is as diverse as Texas is in cultures, education levels and parenting skills. By joining PTA, a member becomes part of the largest child advocacy organization in the state with more than 600,000 members across Texas.
No commitment or expectations required, you’re just simply showing your support for our great students, school, parents, and staff.
