Welcome to LC Elementary
Parent Teacher Association!
Here are a few bits of information about who we are, what we do and how you can join us!
Who We Are
*LC PTA is made up of approximately 380 members who are interested in the welfare of children. They are not only parents but grandparents, aunts and uncles, neighbors and friends.
*A membership in a local unit such as LC PTA also makes you a member of the Iowa state PTA and the National PTA. These organizations work for the benefit of children through the age of 21 so parents of children of all ages may join our PTA and know that their student is benefiting.
What We Do
*LC Elementary PTA provides services to students and teachers at E.A. Kreft Primary and Titan Hill Intermediate schools.
*Monthly meetings are held (typically the 2nd Tuesday of each month) to discuss current projects, provide information and connect with other members.
*Funds are raised annually to support the budget which provides for the services mentioned above; Some of these services and programs are coordinating the room parent program, hosting the ice cream socials/open houses, sponsoring "Meet the Teacher/Supply Drop Off" nights prior to the first day of school, coordinating the Box Top's For Education program, book fairs, supply drives, teacher appreciation and supply boxes! Funds are also used to purchase items such as non-fiction books for classrooms, playground equipment and more.
How You Can Join US
*A membership to LC PTA costs only $5 and again, makes you a member of Iowa PTA and National PTA. To join, simply send your $5 via school mail with a sheet stating your name, address, children's names, grades and teachers. Mark your envelope LC PTA Membership and you can expect to get a packet including your membership card, notepad and free family swim voucher for the LC pool shortly thereafter!
*Please feel free to call me with any questions you may have regarding LC Elementary PTA.
