WHO ARE WE?  

 The Parent Teacher Association (PTA) at Jim Thorpe Fundamental School is a group of volunteer parents, teachers and staff who develop and offer programs and activities to enhance our students' academic and social experiences and support our families and amazing staff.  All parents of Jim Thorpe students are encouraged to join the PTA.

 WHAT WE DO

The PTA raises funds to bridge the gap left by insufficient district and state funds. The money raised by the PTA is used to pay for enrichment programs, assemblies, technology, classroom supplies, school improvements and family fun events.  We are part of the 4th District PTA, California PTA and National PTA as our governing bodies.  We adhere to a strict code of bylaws set forth from these organizations.

PTA MEETINGS

PTA meetings for the general association are held approximately every 2 months at 8:30 am in the MPR (multi-purpose room). All parents are encouraged to attend to learn about the school plans, and connect with other parents and staff.  All PTA Members hold voting rights at these meetings.
