What does the PTSA do?
We support our PK-12 Clippers by planning and funding events like Author Visits, Book Fairs, Guest Speakers, Halloween Trunk-or-Treat, Special Events, Staff Appreciation, Teen Night, and more. We also support school-led events like Drama Performances, Field Day, Ziggy vet appointments, and more with funds and volunteers.
