PTA BUDGET
We get the questions "What does PTA do?" and "Why should I join PTA?" quite often.
We raise money every year to sponsor and support student programs at Spicewood, enhance our children's education, fund PYP, teacher trainings, and SO MUCH MORE. Our board strives to be transparent, open, and communicative with our members. Our annual budget ranges from $100,000-$175,000 to provide all these services at Spicewood.
PTA builds community between our parents, faculty, and staff. We welcome you to be a member to continue growing our diverse community. But it is imperative that each member know the financials behind our PTA and what we actually fund. If you have any questions please contact us at: president@spicewoodpta.org or our Treasurer at treasurer@spicewoodpta.org

Welcome to Spicewood PTA!
Welcome!
Spicewood PTA Website is undergoing maintenance in advance of the 2023-2024 school year.
Some functions and information may be temporarily disabled.
Thank you for your patience!
Welcome to the Spicewood Elementary PTA! Our PTA is a group of parents, caregivers, teachers, school staff, and community members who have joined together with the shared goals of advocacy, family engagement, programming for kids, and support for our school.
The Spicewood PTA was formed:
- To promote the welfare of children and youth in home, school, and throughout the community;
- To raise the standards of home life;
- To advocate for laws that further the education, physical and mental health, welfare, and safety of children and youth;
- To promote the collaboration and engagement of families and educators in the education of children and youth;
- To engage the public in united efforts to secure the physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and social well-being of all children and youth; and
- To advocate for fiscal responsibility regarding public tax dollars in public education funding
We value collaboration, commitment, diversity, respect, and accountability. However, we cannot do this alone. The Spicewood Community needs involvement from all families in order to best support our children. Whether you choose to volunteer in a classroom, assist with an event, become a Panther Partner, or simply join as a member, you are doing your part to make Spicewood Elementary the BEST environment for growth.
For reasons of privacy and security, we require that you create an account and/or be a current PTA member to view parts of our website. Please register below, if you haven't already. Thank you!
