Want to know more about the community at Denman? Volunteering on the PTSA Executive Board is a great way to learn. No experience is required!
We are seeking a VP of Community for this school year. This role helps get the word out to our community—especially Spanish-speaking families—and make them feel welcome. It's similar to this CA PTA Job Description.
We also invite participation in committees, which are small groups that help with PTSA operations:
Volunteer Committee: be notified first of volunteer needs and think of people who could help
Membership Committee: promote the benefits of PTSA membership
Nominating Committee: in January and February, identify and recruit Executive Board members for the following school year
Budget Committee: estimate how much we'll raise and prioritize our spending
Fundraising Committee: brainstorm, solicit donations, or plan/staff fundraising events
Grants Committee: review staff program grant applications several times a year and vote on whether to fund them
Financial Review Committee: twice a year in a short meeting, ensure that the Financial Reviewer examined our financial and legal records properly
One lucky Denman PTSA member will win your choice of a hoodie or shirt PLUS $20 gift card to Amazon (or any card we can buy online) at the Wed., Nov. 19 PTSA meeting. Show off your Denman pride!
All PTSA members as of 9pm on Mon., Nov. 17 will be automatically entered. Need not be present to win, but we hope you come to be informed and see who wins!
Visit dptsa.link/join or scan the QR code to join or renew.
FINE PRINT: We will draw 5 names. If the winner is not interested in the spirit gear, we will offer it to the 2nd name drawn and so on.
