About Arcola Elementary School's PTA:
Welcome to the PTA at Arcola Elementary School. We believe that nothing is more important than giving a child the best education available. As advocates for our children and believers in proactive parental involvement in our public schools, we work with the teachers, staff, and administration of our school on a weekly basis to strive to make Arcola the best neighborhood school in can be, but we can't do it alone, we need YOUR help.
The PTA raises funds to provide a wide range of enrichment programs for the students. Money raised through PTA memberships help fund class trips, math and science assemblies, support the fifth grade graduating class ,provides thousands of dollars to support educational enrichment and after-school programs, and much, much more. We ask for your support so that we can make resource and learning opportunities available to our children. For the PTA to be effective and truly representative of the school, everyone’s participation is essential. Many parents feel that they do not have time to attend meetings or be on campus during the day. Nevertheless, we want everyone to feel that they are part of the Arcola school community.
