PTA
Memorial Elementary PTA is an organization consisting of Memorial parents and teachers who volunteer their time and talents to organize the various activities that happen throughout the year. The PTA's primary goal is to help families, students and staff members make our whole school the best it can be.
The Memorial PTA is actively involved in our students education. We work to provide the support and resources the teachers and staff need to create a first-class learning environment for our children. We strongly believe in parental involvement in the classroom and encourage parents to join us. Being a PTA member is a great opportunity to become a part of your child's education.
