Notes from the PTA
Red Rocks Elementary PTA's Board consists of its Officers and Committee Chairs. All of our Officer positions (President, VP, Secretary and Treasurer) are up for election (1 Year Terms) and will be voted on at our March General meeting. Committee Chairs will be voted on in May along with the 24-25 Budget.
While some members of our PTA board are returning, we have several board members who are “graduating” with their children or stepping back from their current roles. Please consider joining our Board as we would love to work with you and bring your ideas to our school. In order to continue offering all that our PTA does, these Officer positions and Committees must be filled each and every year. It truly takes a village to run our incredible volunteer PTA.
Help us continue all the incredible work of our PTA by joining our Board. Please see the Google Form for more information on these rewarding opportunities.
Financial Assistance for Paint on the Rocks
Every year our PTA hosts a variety of events and we want every student at Red Rocks Elementary who desires to be able to participate in these community experiences. Therefore, we would like to extend financial assistance to those families whose child may not otherwise have those opportunities. Our next event is Paint on the Rocks, if assistance is needed please fill out this form. Rest assured this information is not shared with anyone expect our PTA president and the event coordinator.
