Role and Goals of the PTA

The PTA is a liaison between the school and the parents.  The PTA's goals are to assist with fund raisers, support family events and improve the community as a whole.  The PTA works together with the school, but does not make policies.

Contact the PTA

The PTA has a couple email addresses for you to be aware of.

• Use porterpto@hotmail.com for parents with questions, concerns or interest in getting involved with the PTA. Just send an email and one of the officers will get back to you soon!

• Use  lewandpo@pwcs.edu  regarding volunteer opportunities (see below for more information on volunteering).

 Volunteer Opportunities

Fulfill your volunteer commitment  but more importantly, support your child's school.  The PTA can keep you up-to-date on opportunities to contribute hours to the school, inside and outside the classroom.  To get on the email notification list, complete the Volunteer Signup Form at return it to your child's teacher.  If you have an address blocker, set it to accept email from lewandpo@pwcs.edu.
