Committee Chairs

Our committee chairs are the PTA’s friendly leaders – they help guide each committee, coordinate volunteers, and bring ideas to life that support our students and families. Committee Chairs work under the direction of a PTA Board member, so you’ll never be on your own in planning. You’ll receive a budget, plenty of guidance, and lots of support along the way – absolutely no experience necessary!

Would you like a co-chair? No problem! Bring a friend and enjoy working together to bring an event to life.

If this sounds interesting to you, we’d love for you to join us! Reach out to to each PTA Board Lead to learn more about how you can support or lead a committee.
