Our PTA
Our PTA is a team of hard-working parents and teachers who pool their talents to give our school support. The people below stepped up to lead this year. Get to know their names and faces, and never hesitate to say hello.
Executive Board
Our elected officers and vice presidents guide the PTA's budget, programs, and priorities all year. This year's twist: every photo is that leader back in elementary school.

Sacramento Safari
Sacramento Safari is the PTA's annual advocacy trip to the California State Capitol. PTA leaders and family advocates travel to Sacramento to meet face to face with state legislators and speak up for public education funding, student well-being, and the issues that matter most to our kids and classrooms.
It is one of the clearest ways our PTA carries our families' voices beyond the school gate and into decisions that shape every California classroom.
