PTA members receive important updates about our school, family & community events, volunteer opportunities and STEM student & staff achievements . Current registered members can vote on the STEM PTA budget, resolutions, annual election of the PTA Executive Board, and have active status in the Washington State PTA .
What does the PTA do?
- Advocate for increased funding, stronger educational systems, district support and Option School presence within SPS.
- Raise money to support areas not funded by district, state or federal resources, such as:
- Project-Based Learning, a core element of STEM curriculum
- Enrichment programs and scholarships
- Field trips
- Professional development opportunities for teachers and staff
- And more! See here for additional info on our PTA budget
- Promote Racial Equity, Inclusion and Community among our school families.
- Facilitate ongoing open communication and collaboration between our Principal, teachers & staff, administration, parents, caregivers, students and the greater community.
- Volunteer in the school, library, classrooms, and during community events and special projects.
- We have fun while working to strengthen our whole community!
Our goal is to have every student represented on the PTA. We encourage becoming a member (it’s free!), joining meetings when possible and participating however you can to help increase our support for STEM, together! If you have any questions, please contact president@stemk8pta.org.
