Ways to Support the PTA

There are opportunities to join the PTA not only as a member but as Vice President or Committee Chair of various committees for the upcoming 2023-2024 school year.
 
Become a Class Parent Leader! A class parent leader is a leader that creates a bridge between parents, teachers, and the rest of the school community by representing your child's class parents group. They will help communicate, organize, engage, and participate in their child’s education by creating and fostering a safe and respectful learning environment. They will work towards one purpose and that is to provide the tools necessary for success for their child and their peers.

We're looking for additional hike leaders, with coordination and assistance from our Hiking Club leader. Email us if you'd like to jump in for the upcoming year! Thanks!
 
Here's some basic information if you are new to hiking:
  • The hikes will take approximately 2–3 hours  (covering about 2 to 3 miles of terrain).  Shorter trail options are usually available.
  • This includes time for little legs to walk slowly as needed, time for stopping to check out cool stuff - bugs, rocks, streams, boulders, and making a stop for lunch or snacks.
  • This is a great hike for littles and beginners, but bring a wearable backpack/carrier for kids 2yo and under.
  • Bring:
    • Packed lunch, snacks, and water for everyone
    • Shoes: Sneakers or hiking boots.
    • Wear: layers to put on/ take off, it's cool in the morning and heats up by lunch
