The PTA is an active and important part of Dieringer Heights Elementary School. The PTA is a private, non-profit
volunteer organization that works within the school community to promote the health, welfare, safety, and
education of all children. It is affiliated with the Washington State PTA which, in turn, is affiliated with the National
PTA. Any person who is concerned about children and children’s issues is encouraged to join the PTA and to become
as active a member as you desire; whether you are simply joining to show support or committing to involvement in
one or more committees.
This year, the PTA plans to continue to:
• provide quality assemblies for our students;
• work with the school district to ensure our kids will be safe in the event of an emergency;
• organize family activities such as math nights, skating parties, movie nights, and a carnival
• sponsor the Missoula Children’s Theatre and the Reflections arts program;
• support curriculum by sponsoring a Science Fair;
• provide speakers on relevant school and parenting topics;
• publish a monthly newsletter, and produce a yearbook;
• sponsor a Reading at Home program, and hold two book fairs;
• provide an introduction to art through the Art Docent program;
• support teachers and staff with the fall luncheon and staff appreciation week;
• help coordinate volunteers to work throughout the school and coordinate after-school activities;
• provide information on legislative issues that affect the health, welfare, safety, and education of all children.
Look for the PTA packet that contains information on joining PTA and other volunteer opportunities.
