Mission
The mission of the PTA is three-fold:
* To support and speak on behalf of children and youth in schools, in the community and before governmental bodies and other organizations that make decisions affecting children.
* To assist parents in developing the skills they need to raise and protect their children.
*To encourage parent and public involvement in the public schools of this nation.

Welcoming
Our PTA does an exceptional job of keeping parents informed about early adolescence. This is accomplished by providing each student with a SchoolMate Agenda/Handbook, publishing "Twister Talk," the school newsletter, every other month providing brochures and reading material at Back-To-School Night and American Education Week, as well as resource books in the parent section of the school Media Center.
