Join the Veeder Elementary School PTA

Inside PTA page photoReach for the Stars!

Veeder Elementary School friends and family are cordially invited to become a part of the vital link between parents, teachers, students and the community by joining the Veeder Elementary School PTA.

Throughout the year the PTA sponsors a wide variety of activities for our students and families. By joining the Veeder PTA you will be showing your support of these events and supporting your child. Membership is open to all parents, teachers, grandparents, and members of the community.

Joining enables you to vote at meetings, head a committee, or hold an office. However, joining the PTA in no way requires you to attend meetings or participate in committees. Your level of involvement is entirely up to you.

Help us Reach for the Stars and meet our goal of 100% family participation this year.

To become a star, please fill out the enrollment form and return it in an envelope with
your child with the $5 per person membership fee to: PTA Mailbox, Attn: Membership.
Please make checks payable to Veeder PTA.

On the enrollment form is a list of some of the PTA sponsored events this year, please check any that you are interested in volunteering for.

Also, a list of PTA meeting dates can be found on the right column of this page. Please check the Google web calendar on the school homepage for meeting dates/changes and a list of monthly PTA-sponsored events.
