PTA Executive Board Nominations 2020-2021

 

 

 

 

The PTA is currently working to fill our executive board positions for next year.  Becoming a board member is an excellent way to get to know more Spicewood parents and staff members while providing an invaluable service to our school.  

 

Did you know that PTA sponsors and/or supports One World One Night, STEAM Day, Math Superstars, KISS Cookout, Spelling Bee, Geography Bee, Field Day, Field Trips, Assemblies, Destination Imagination, Spring Carnival, Art in the Classroom, Reflections, Yearbook, Spirit Nights, Literacy Library, Science Fair, and much more?  

 

Our PTA can be no more effective than its leadership.  We’re asking that you consider stepping up and giving back to PTA, and Spicewood, by getting more involved!  It is critical for parents to volunteer so that PTA can continue to grow and accomplish more good work for Spicewood. 

 

If you are interested in any of the positions, please throw your name in the hat for one (or more!) of the board positions through our online PTA Executive Board Nomination Form:

Welcome to Spicewood PTA!

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.
