BECOME A ROCKSTAR! JOIN THE DISCOVERY KEY PTA? HERE ARE SOME GOOD REASONS...
IT IS GOOD FOR YOUR CHILDREN ...
Showing your children you value their education will teach them to value it as well. You are their role model!
The PTA supports and funds some of your children's classroom special programs, enrichment program (art/music/drama), family events, and field trips. Many of the fun parts of going to school, like the Fall Bash, Sweetheart Dance and Free Family Events are put on by PTA!
IT IS GOOD FOR YOU ...
The Discovery Key community is full of amazing, diverse people all with one thing in common ... our children. Take advantage of this opportunity to socialize and build relationships with the people your child is in contact with every day!The most important reason is that you'll have a say and a forum to share your ideas. As a member you are welcome to come to any or all meetings that are held. However it is not mandatory to attend, it is voluntary. Anyone can join! PTA is an extraordinary group of moms, dads, grandparents, advocates, principals and teachers.
IT IS GOOD FOR THE SCHOOL ...
PTA plays an important role in fundraising to provide the extras that help make our school so special. Your role as a member is very important to help our school acquire key resources, encourage student achievement, and enrich the learning
environment.
Let's go for 100% membership this year! That means one paid membership per student enrolled. You don't have to be a PTA volunteer to join and you don't have to attend our monthly meetings. All you have to do is want to support your student's school. Everyone in your family can be a member including Moms, Dads, Uncles, Aunts, Grandparents and Neighbors. When you become a member of PTA, your membership dues help kick off the fundraising year for Discovery Key. Also, when you receive your membership card you will receive exclusive PTA member discounts!
About PTA
The overall purpose of PTA is to make every child's potential a
reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate
for all children.
PTA Values
Collaboration: We work in partnership with a wide array of individuals and organizations to accomplish our agreed-upon goals.
Commitment: We are dedicated to promoting children's
health, well-being, and educational success through strong parent,
family, and community involvement.
Accountability: We acknowledge our obligations. We deliver on our promises.
Respect: We value our colleagues and ourselves. We
expect the same high quality of effort and thought from ourselves as we
do from others.
Inclusivity: We invite the stranger and welcome the
newcomer. We value and seek input from as wide a spectrum of viewpoints
and experiences as possible.
Integrity: We act consistently with our beliefs. When we err, we acknowledge the mistake and seek to make amends.
Nonsectarian Policy
PTA welcomes into membership people representing a diversity of
cultures, ethnic backgrounds, and political and religious beliefs. The
purposes of the PTA acknowledge the importance of a spiritual life in
the development of children and youth. As an association, PTA has the
right to offer inspirational messages to open or close its meetings, but
such messages by PTA leaders or invited religious leaders should be
inspirational rather than sectarian, recognizing that in this
pluralistic nation not all members share the same beliefs. Poetry,
quotations from great men and women, uplifting anecdotes, and moments of
quiet meditation can be used.
Diversity and Inclusion Policy
PTAs everywhere must understand and embrace the uniqueness of all
individuals, appreciating that each contributes a diversity of views,
experiences, cultural heritage/traditions, skills/abilities, values and
preferences. When PTAs respect differences yet acknowledge shared
commonalities uniting their communities, and then develop meaningful
priorities based upon their knowledge, they genuinely represent their
communities. When PTAs represent their communities, they gain strength
and effectiveness through increased volunteer and resource support.
The recognition of diversity within organizations is valuing
differences and similarities in people through actions and
accountability. These differences and similarities include age,
ethnicity, language and culture, economic status, educational
background, gender, geographic location, marital status, mental ability,
national origin, organizational position and tenure, parental status,
physical ability, political philosophy, race, religion, sexual
orientation, and work experience.
Therefore PTAs at every level must:
- Openly assess beliefs and practices to assure inclusiveness and guard against discrimination;
- Make every effort to create a PTA board and membership that is inclusive and reflective of its community;
- Encourage that all PTA activities at the school be planned by a committee which is representative of the population
