About Your Poplar Tree PTA
The Poplar Tree PTA is a network of families, educators, and community members who volunteer and fundraise to support Poplar Tree Elementary School. Our mission is to make every child’s potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization run by volunteers, the Poplar Tree PTA provides funding and support including:
-
School enhancements for all: School budgets don’t cover everything teachers and staff need to create an amazing learning experience for our students. The PTA offers classroom supply reimbursements to teachers; grants for art, music, and special programs; building improvements; software for all students; technology for classrooms; and more!
-
Student opportunities: We provide ways to for students to grow their skills and develop new interests through the spelling bee and science fair, as well as before/after school classes. These programs are sponsored and coordinated by the PTA and are a special benefit to our active PTA members.
-
Family events: We create events that bring our community together, such as the Panther Prowl, Talent Show, and Block Party, as well as events for students such as assemblies and author visits.
-
Teacher and staff appreciation: We support and recognize teachers and staff with appreciation events throughout the year.
-
Volunteer coordination: Volunteering is a great way to get involved in your child’s experience, as well as contribute to the school. We coordinate everything from room parents to library volunteers to help with Friday folder copies to coordination of events and programs.
