Join the PTA
Membership
Your membership in the PTA has a direct impact on your children and the quality of our school. The PTA has the ability to help make school a better place for children to learn, by providing financial and other resources to our teachers and staff, and programs and events for our students and families. By becoming a PTA member, you can help identify the needs of the school and develop solutions that include advocating for student needs, and bringing enriched educational opportunities to the school.
What is the PTA? The PTA (Parent Teacher Association) is a national grass roots organization that brings parents and teachers together so they can work towards improving the lives and education of children. Simply, a PTA is a group of adults affiliated with a school that have organized to work to help children thrive and learn - whether that means fundraising for enrichment opportunities, educating parents, helping teachers, or fighting for legislation to ensure every child gets a high quality education.

Become a PTA Member
We are excited about this school year and look forward to engaging with our students and families!
How much is membership? This is an annual membership - so if you joined in previous years, we need your support again! An individual membership is only $12 (faculty/staff is $7) for the entire school year.
Membership has so many benefits:
Get Connected. Learn about what's happening at LES.
Discover Great Resources. The PTA offers a variety of programs designed for students and their families, as well as faculty and staff.
Tap Into a Network. Parenting is not easy - it helps to share ideas, concerns and experiences with other parents and educators in the community. PTA events are opportunities to meet other parents and teachers, build rapport and discuss ideas that are on your mind.
Speak Up. Because the PTA is a forum for exchanging ideas, you are encouraged to make suggestions. PTA can be a way for you to effectively suggest change at our school.
Witness Improvement. Our PTA plays an important role in fundraising to provide additional funding to staff, building improvements, curriculum-based programs, cultural arts, and social events - all vital to our school's success.
Be a Role Model. By becoming a PTA member, you'll be demonstrating to your child the importance you place on education.
