The Scotts Ridge PTA Needs YOU!!

As a principal, I see the positive impact of our amazing PTA everywhere I look. Joining the PTA is a great way to be involved in your child’s education, build connections, and stay informed. Don’t have a lot of time to commit? No problem! Your membership is important even if you aren’t able to volunteer. 

Did you know?? 

—Only current members are eligible to participate and vote in PTA general membership meetings. 

—Every individual who is a member of SRE PTA is also a member of NCPTA and National PTA and entitled to those membership benefits. National PTA provides access to online parenting resources and publications with articles by experts on children’s health, education, and well-being. NCPTA benefits include discounted rates for N.C. State Fair tickets, Hello Fresh, Walmart Business, and Canva.

Thank you to the teachers and parent volunteers who made our fifth-grade in-house field trip a tremendous success. It was wonderful to see how much the students enjoyed their special day. They certainly created some great memories!
