Also, I would like to address the ongoing comments shared by children's parents who are not a part of PTA. Nor have these parents been involved in the past for a variety of reasons, mostly work related. You do not have to attend all the meetings to be a voice in PTA. There are other ways in which you can be a great influence in your child's educational experience. PTA is an organization which works with you (the Parent), teachers and the school district to provide a more positive educational experience for everyone including your child. We help sponsor activities which enrich the educational process for all CHILDREN who attend Brattain and try to do it in a way that INCLUDES EACH child regardless of social economic status. Through your membership dues we are a greater voice when it comes to issues related to your child's future. Please if you have questions regarding PTA you can all me at 505-8305 or e-mail at howardagency@aol.com . Each and every voice counts here at Brattain PTA. Let us work together to create a valuable

Harvest Carnival

Are you a
"get the job done kind of person"
then Brattain PTA needs you!

We are seeking volunteers for the Harvest Carnival, both to work booths and to help put together the event. Are you interested in being the Committe chair or just interested in being a part of the team please contact Wanda at 505-8305 or e-mail me at Howardagency@aol.com

Any idea's please share...
