Did you know that your PTA:
- Sponsors a broad range of afterschool clubs as well as scholarships to these clubs for children in need
- Provides three to four cultural arts and character education assemblies every school year
- Funds the Artist-in-Residence program
- Supports teacher training and provides funds to teachers for classroom supplies
- Sponsors Math Day, Science Day, the Science Fair and the Geo Bee
- Organizes many community service projects such as sandwich making for the homeless, the Lungevity Walk, Pennies for Patients and Jump Rope for Heart
- Finances community-building events, including the Back To School Picnic, Craft Night, Parent Cocktail party and the other family social events
- advocates for your children's education before MCPS, the Board of Education, the County Council and the Maryland State Legislature
MCPS does not pay for many of these “extras” we have come to expect and that our children enjoy. We need your support.
