Why is there a membership fee?

Membership fees (or dues) are the first step in committing your support to the Grant Elementary school community. The monies collected directly fund Grant PTA-sponsored initiatives.

Grant PTA understands fees add to the financial weight of a new school year. Therefore, membership scholarships are available on a case-by-case basis. If you would like more information, you can confidentially contact Grant Elementary Family Resource Coordinator.

WHAT ARE WE RAISING MONEY FOR? In addition to the fun events, our PTA has made a commitment to provide funds for: 

• $10 per student (totaling $3,500) to attend a 2nd field trip or classroom project this school year

• Gift cards for families in crisis 

• Field trip lunches/snacks for students who cannot afford to bring their own

• Clothes for students who have accidents at school 

• Welcome kit with a t-shirt for every new student, K and preschoolers
