Children playing at kindergarden

ABOUT US

We are a community of active and engaged parents.  Our membership is open to all adults who believe in the mission of the PTA.
 
Joining the PTA is showing that you care what happens in your children's education.  It shows that you want to be involved, engaged and informed.
 
Joining the PTA isn't a commitment to volunteer for anything!
 
It doesn't mean you have to turn up to a meeting every month (although we hope you will consider it).
 
Joining the PTA is joining our community and getting to know us better.  It is having a voice and being heard at the school and school district level.

Why join Miller Driscoll PTA?
The number one reason to join the Parent Teacher Association is to benefit your child. In doing so, you also help Miller Driscoll. But there are many more PTA advantages:
  • Get Connected. There’s no better way to know what’s happening at Miller Driscoll.
  • Discover Great Resources. The PTA offers a variety of programs designed for parents as well as students.
