Team UP ... Join the PTA at Spanish Oaks

Submitted by kali.brown on

The Spanish Oaks Elementary PTA is looking for volunteers.  While we appreciate all who join as members, we could use some more help in leadership positions.  This is a great opportunity to help plan activities for our school, sit on our PTA Board with the principal and teacher representative(s), and be “a voice” for how our PTA funds are used.  If you are able to be more involved this next school year, we would love to have you!

Currently our PTA is in charge of the following at the school:

White House Tea at Spanish Oaks

Submitted by sherri.peterson on

Our fifth grade students became President or First Lady of the United States for a day while they presented information about themselves to their parents. Their parents then used the information to determine which president they were depicting.  We had great costumes, and even some members of the President's personal security team (the fifth grade teachers).  Nice job, fifth graders!
