The Whitehall
Elementary PTA invites you to join us to make
a difference in the education and quality
of life for our children.
We all know that
children learn more and have better lives
when parents, school staff, students and the
community work together. PTA brings all of
these groups together to share thoughts and
ideas about programs and activities that benefit
children. Our PTA provides programs, activities,
information and resources that strengthen
these relationships. Information is provided
through guest speakers, brochures, newsletters
and on the web.
Our goal for this
year is to get more parents, grandparents,
teachers, staff, students and community members
to join PTA. You can participate as much or
as little as you choose. Your membership alone
helps make our voice as a PTA stronger. By
becoming a member, your support will bring
us closer to accomplishing this goal.
If you would like
more information, call Cheryl Powell at 412-207-6828
