How can children get involved?

I would like a say in how the PTA uses their budget?

I joined PTA for $10. What is this $10 used for?

It goes to national and state PTAs to bond our PTA and provide other support. A small portion goes to WRE.

Why do we limit 2 fundraising opportunities?

WRE subscribes to the Texas PTA 3-1 guideline. PTAs should use the 3-1 guideline when planning the year’s activities. For every fundraising activity there should be at least 3 non-fundraising aimed at helping parents and children. Programs can advocate for children and families’ rights as well as school improvements.
