Special Events

Special events round out a PTA calendar by supporting your community in connection, appreciation and education. Some of the most popular PTA programs include:

• Back to School Week
  It’s the most wonderful time of year for PTA! The beginning of the school year is an unofficial holiday season and teachers, parents and students are filled with anticipation and excitement for the school year ahead.
• Healthy Lifestyles Month (November) The Healthy Lifestyles program offers educational resources and engagement opportunities that inform students and families on ways to make better-informed health decisions.
• Take Your Family To School Week
  Encourage families to get more involved in their child’s education! Celebrate National PTA's Take Your Family to School Week by hosting an event at your school centered around Health & Safety, Literacy, Digital Learning, or STEM.
