Fall for Ross!
In place of our annual fall membership drive, the PTA invites everyone in our school community to Fall for Ross.
This campaign and the spring auction are the PTA's biggest fundraisers of the year.
Why support the PTA? Because each year the Ross PTA raises more than $150,000 to offset school operating costs, enabling Principal Searl to use school funds to hire additional teaching staff not budgeted for by DCPS.
Among other things, PTA funding covers the costs of: Ross classroom, office and cleaning supplies; teacher training; and technology needs. Learn more about the Ross PTA here.
Our Fall for Ross campaign goals are to raise $50,000 (~$300 per student) and connect with every Ross family.
Please join us and Fall for Ross this year!
