WHAT IS THE PTA?
The PTA (Parent Teacher Association) is a group of parents, teachers, administrators and other concerned adults that talk about ways to support quality education, support community involvement, and work for a healthy environment & safe neighborhoods.
Who can join the AME PTA? Anyone! Parents, Teachers, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Neighbors, Business Leaders and Community Members, who believe in and support the Mission and Purpose of the PTA
I will not be able to volunteer, why should I join? Joining doesn’t compel you for your time commitment. There is no better way to know what’s happening in your school. You will also have the opportunity to have some influence over how money from fundraising is spent to benefit AME and show your child you are involved in their education. You can also enjoy some GREAT SAVINGS.
How is PTA money utilized? Your membership fee of $7.50 (good from Aug 1, 2021 to July 31, 2022) includes National PTA membership ($2.25) and Texas PTA membership ($2.25). The remaining $3.00 stays at AME PTA to help to support technology upgrades and purchases, books, field trips, student enrichment programs, events, campus improvements and so much more. Many of these are needs that are beyond the scope of the school's budget.
