A message from the Jackson PTA

Dear Jackson Families, 

As we embark on another exciting school year, the George A. Jackson PTA extends a warm welcome to both our new and returning families. We are thrilled to have you as part of our vibrant school community and are looking forward to an incredible 2024-2025 school year filled with engaging events, enriching programs, and unforgettable experiences for our students, staff, and families.

Our PTA is a non-profit group of parent volunteers. We partner with our principal, Dr. Rivera, teachers, staff, parents, and local organizations to enhance our school environment and foster a supportive community.

We invite you to get involved in a way that best suits your interests and availability. There are many ways to contribute:

• PTA Membership:  Your contribution of $10 supports our initiatives and gives you a voice in PTA decisions.
• General Volunteer: Offer your time and skills to help with various events and activities.
• Class Captain: Coordinate with teachers and families to support classroom needs.
• Committee Chairperson: Lead specific areas such as community service, fundraising, events, or programs.
• Join our Executive Board: Take on a leadership role and help guide our PTA's direction.

Your involvement makes a significant difference in creating a positive and engaging school experience for all our students. To join us or learn more about how you can get involved, please reach out to us. Also, don't forget to follow us on Instagram for updates and highlights throughout the year!

Thank you for your support and commitment. Together, let's make this school year exceptional!
