OUR PTA
2012-2013 PTA Board
Our Mission
Sunnyside Elementary School PTA is a nonprofit organization that brings together the parents, teachers, and community partners of our school. Through collaborative planning, fundraising, and community building events, we support our school’s strengths and enrich our students’ learning experiences. Through parent donations, special events, and community grants, the PTA has helped Sunnyside make outstanding gains over the years.
Our Focus
Our Successes
Our recent successes have included the Sunnyside Learning Garden, an outdoor classroom of container gardens built by parent volunteers; the Sunnyside play structure, an important addition to our blacktop play yard; and a native plant garden, bordering the play area and maintained by parent volunteers. Our PTA’s membership has more than tripled over the past three years. Our goal is for every parent and teacher to be involved.
