The PTA primarily communicates through email (piercedownerpta@gmail.com) and our web site (piercedownerpta.org). Each Tuesday the PTA will send an email through Gmail letting parents know about upcoming PTA programs and volunteer opportunities. We hope all families will become members of the Pierce Downer PTA and share in the voting decisions on all the activities/items our PTA funds. Membership information to come soon!

School Supply Kits – If you ordered school supply kits from Carlson’s online back in May, they will be delivered directly to the school and will be waiting for the students in their classrooms on the first day of school. The teachers will direct the students in labeling their supplies using the pre-printed name labels provided by Carlson’s. Take note of the items that were NOT included in the kits (gym shoes, art smock, old sock, band/orchestra items, etc.) and send those with your student as needed on the first day.
