What is the PTSA?


Do you ever ask yourself…..? What is the PTSA?  Why should I be a part of the PTSA?  What can the PTSA do for my child?  The answer is simple and affects not only your child, but the entire school and community.
What is the PTSA:   Parent-Teacher-Student Association, aka PTSA is a voluntary organization bringing together parents, teachers,and students within a particular school or school district, usually for fund-raising, building parent involvement and community at school and other activities relating to the welfare of the school.  You Are the PTSA.

The mission of the George Washington Carver High Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA) is to be the main support of our school--internally with our administration, faculty and students; and externally with our families and the community around us. We want to provide a communication link, so everyone will be connected in making George Washington Carver best high school in our city! Accomplishing our mission depends on YOU! We hope you will join the PTSA both financially and physically. We want you to give generously and volunteer throughout the year. We want you to support all the events planned for the upcoming year. So please visit the schools website www.carverhighschool.com and print a copy of the PTSA Events Calendar.

During open house, parents will have the opportunity to obtain their child’s progress reports and address any pertinent issues.  Each meeting will spotlight school organizations and provide beneficial information for life skill development for you and your family.
