PTA

WELCOME to your EVES PTA


Why we PTA?
We LOVE our children, we LOVE education, and we LOVE our EVES families!  This grassroots organization provides the opportunity to work together with teachers, families, and school administration to better support our EVES children. It’s a collaborative effort to make dreams a reality by creating a better world through a strong education, love for learning, and developing a connections.  We aim to support all people through an acceptance and understanding of the many diverse cultures in our community, as well as globally. It is our desire that this belief and support be available for ALL children, nationwide; to be healthy, to be safe, and to receive an equal and inclusive education.


“National PTA® is the oldest and largest child advocacy association in America. For 125 years, PTA has worked with school communities and decision makers to solve the toughest problems in our nation’s history. PTA is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit association that prides itself on being a powerful voice for all children, a relevant resource for families and communities, and a strong advocate for public education. Membership in PTA is open to anyone who supports the PTA mission.“ (About National Parent Teacher Association | National PTA)

National PTA has established programs and called for legislation that improves our children’s lives, such as:

  •  Creation of kindergarten classes
  •  Child labor laws
  •  Public health service
  •  Hot and healthy lunch programs
  •  Juvenile justice system
  •  Mandatory immunization
  •  Arts in Education
  •  School Safety

 

Why PTA, not PTO?
 

3 Simple Reasons:
1. This membership provides our local group with tools and resources that makes our jobs of organizing easier. Just one example of this is that all of the administrative work that is involved with being a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit is filed and maintained for us.


2. EVES PTA does handle money through the few fundraisers we have and held events for families of Eagle Valley. The membership to the organization provides our local unit members a protection through a very affordable insurance policy. It has been priced out by our Treasurer, and to invest in our own insurance, it would cost us triple the amount we now pay.

3. Our awareness that we are a nation of many children, families, and teachers, impassions us to be part of a group that is bigger than us. We choose to be part of the One Voice for Every Child.
